It’s difficult to decide what is the best-tasting part of this plate. Is it the plump edamame bean salad with fresh greens, sun-dried tomato, bell pepper, & cucumber? Perhaps the oven-roasted gem squash? Or the golden slices of chicken drenched in a honey-infused mustard dressing? You’re allowed to answer ‘all of the above’, Chef!

GEM SQUASH
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the de-seeded gem squash halves on a roasting tray, cut-side up. Lightly drizzle with oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until soft, 25-30 minutes.
GOLDEN CHICKEN
Boil the kettle. Place a pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 4-5 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 4-5 minutes. During the final 1-2 minutes, spice the chicken with the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
PLUMP BEANS & GREENS
Submerge the edamame beans in salted boiling water until plumped up, 3-4 minutes. Drain and toss with the cucumber ribbons, ½ the sliced spring onions, the diced peppers, the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and the shredded leaves. Set aside.
ALMOST DONE
When the gem squash is done, set aside to cool for 5 minutes before cutting into wedges.
