Topped with a rich chargrilled capsicum relish and melted cheese, this rustic hasselback chicken is packed with hearty flavour. Served on a bed of roasted veggie couscous with pumpkin, red onion and baby spinach, it’s finished with a drizzle of Greek-style yoghurt for a creamy, tangy touch. This recipe is under 650kcal per serving. We’ve added parsley to this recipe. It may be a little different to what’s pictured, but just as delicious!

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Roast the veggies
1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. 
• Slice onion (see ingredients) into wedges. 
• Place peeled pumpkin pieces and onion on a lined oven tray. Drizzle 
with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. 
• Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. 

Roast the chicken
2

• Meanwhile, cut deep slices, taking care to not slice all the way through, 
across chicken breast at 1cm intervals. 
• Place chicken on a second lined oven tray and season generously with salt
and pepper. 
• Top with chargrilled capsicum relish and sprinkle over grated Parmesan
cheese. Roast until cooked through, 12-16 minutes.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

Make the couscous
3

• Boil the kettle. In a medium heatproof bowl, add couscous and chicken-style stock powder.
• Add the boiling water(see ingredients) and stir to combine. Immediately cover with plate and leave for 5 minutes. 
• Meanwhile, slice lemon into wedges.
• When couscous is done, fluff up with a fork, then add roasted veggies, baby leaves, a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste. 

Finish & serve
4

• Slice chicken. 
• Divide pumpkin couscous between plates. Top with hasselback chicken.
• Drizzle over Greek-style yoghurt and garnish with torn parsley. 
• Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
