  1. HERB-INFUSED CHICKEN & ONION

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the chicken pieces on a roasting tray. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Add the onion wedges, and coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway). Place the rinsed baby tomatoes and drained chickpeas on a second roasting tray. Coat in oil, seasoning, and set aside.

  2. GET THAT KALE TO RELAX...

    Place the shredded kale in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Using your hands, massage until softened and well coated. Set aside.

  3. BROWN THE SEEDS

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat (you won’t be using it again). Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. FABULOUS ROAST ADDITIONS

    When the roast has been in the oven for about 10 minutes, pop in the tray of tomatoes and chickpeas. When there are 7-9 minutes remaining, scatter the kale over the tray of tomatoes and return to the oven for the remaining roasting time. The chicken should be cooked through, the chickpeas and kale crispy, the tomatoes blistered, and the onion caramelised.

  5. DRESS IT UP

    Place the sweet vinaigrette dressing in a salad bowl. Whisk in 20ml of olive oil and seasoning. Toss through the rinsed salad leaves, the crispy kale, and the toasted sunflower seeds until coated.

  6. MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE FEAST
