WEDGES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Carrot wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up.
NUTS
Place a pan over a medium heat. Add the Walnuts and the honey and fry for 3-4 minutes until toasted and caramelised, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and spread out in a single layer on a chopping board. Roughly chop when hardened slightly.
STUFFING
In a small bowl, add the goat’s cheese, the chopped rosemary, the chopped sage, some lemon zest, the grated garlic, and some seasoning. Mix until fully combined. Add the chopped Walnuts once they are cooled.
PREP
Pat the Chicken pieces dry with some paper towel and place on a chopping board. Using a sharp knife, make a small, horizontal incision in the skin of each piece. Using your finger or the knife, gently pull the skin and the flesh apart to make little pockets for the stuffing underneath the skin. Using a small spoon or your fingers, gently fill each pocket with the goat’s cheese stuffing - don’t worry if it spills out. Coat each piece in a drizzle of oil and some seasoning.
ROASTIN’
Slice a quarter of the rinsed apple into thin wedges. On a roasting tray, place the halved Grapes, ½ the sliced apple and any remaining goat’s cheese stuffing. Drizzle with oil and season. Top with the stuffed Chicken pieces and pour over 50ml of cider. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and becoming crispy, basting the chicken with the cider halfway through.
SALAD
In a salad bowl, place the remaining sliced Apple and the shredded green leaves. Add a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice and some seasoning. Toss until fully combined.
