ROASTED VEGGIES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the halved baby carrots and the beetroot chunks on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
CHICKEN FLATTY
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towel. Lay the breast on a chopping board and cover with cling wrap. Using an empty jar, or rolling pin, pound the breast until halved in thickness. Season and set aside.
GOLDEN & CRISPY
Boil the kettle. When the roast has been in for 10-15 minutes, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken until crispy and golden, 2-3 minutes. Flip, and fry on the other side until browned but not cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and place in a small baking dish.
CHEESY SAUCE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Add the chicken spice (to taste) and ½ the chopped oregano. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Remove from the heat and add the stock, 100ml of boiling water, and the crème fraîche. Reduce the heat and simmer until slightly reduced, 4-5 minutes. Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and the grated cheese. Add the mixture to the baking dish with the chicken breast. Pop in the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through, 7-8 minutes.
CRUNCHY & CREAMY SALAD
In a bowl, combine the rinsed salad leaves, the roasted beetroot, the crumbled feta, seasoning, and a drizzle of olive oil.
