Mozzarella & Red Pesto Chicken Breast With Roasted Veg

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces

Cut your red onion[s] into wedges, leaving the skins on (this helps them cook quicker)

Chop your courgette[s] into thick discs, approx. 2cm thick

Strip your rosemary leaves from their stems and chop them roughly, discard the stems

Tip: Hold the top of the herb sprigs firmly and slide your fingers down their lengths to easily remove the leaves

Add the chopped potatoes, courgette discs and onion wedges to a baking tray (or two!)

Add the rosemary leaves, dried oregano, a pinch of salt and a generous drizzle of olive oil and give everything a good mix up

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 25-30 min or until the veg is soft and the potatoes are crisp

Meanwhile, add your chicken to a separate tin foil-lined baking tray(or two!)

Drain your mozzarella, then pat and squeeze as much liquid out as you can with kitchen paper

Tear the drained mozzarella into rough, bite-sized pieces

Top the chicken with your sun-dried tomato pesto and torn mozzarella

Season with a pinch of salt and pepper

Put the tray in the oven and cook for 18-20 min or until the cheese is golden and the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your mozzarella & red pesto chicken

Once the veg is done, carefully remove and discard the skins and root[s] of the roasted onion
