  1. THE ROAST WITH THE MOST

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the beetroot chunks on a roasting tray. Top with the chicken pieces. Coat the beetroot & chicken in the chopped thyme, the NOMU rub, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crispy, 30-35 minutes.

  2. BROC THAT ROC

    Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, toss the broccoli pieces in a drizzle of oil and seasoning. Set aside. Rinse and roughly chop the parsley.

  3. GET ‘EM GOLDEN

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. A ROAST VEG MEDLEY

    When the roast is halfway, give the tray a shift and scatter over the dressed broccoli. Roast for the remaining time.

  5. YUMMY YOGHURT

    In a bowl, combine the yoghurt, the lemon juice, ½ the chopped parsley, and seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.

  6. AN IMPRESSIVE PLATE

    Plate up the roast veg & chicken. Drizzle over the lemon-parsley yoghurt. Garnish with the remaining parsley and scatter over the toasted seeds. Dive in, Chef!
