1 packet
Cherry Sauce
(May be present: Gluten, Milk, Sesame, Soy, Almond, Cashew, Wheat, Eggs, Fish. )
olive oil
½ tbs
balsamic vinegar
Preheat the oven to 240°/220°C fan-forced. Cut the red onion into wedges. Cut the potato and parsnip into bite-sized chunks. Cut the beetroot into small chunks.
Place the onion, parsnip and beetroot on a lined oven tray. Place the potato on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle both trays with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes. In the last 5 minutes of cook time, scatter the grated Parmesan cheese over the potato, then return to the oven and bake until golden and melted.
TIP: Beetroot stays firm when cooked. It's done when you can pierce it with a fork.
While the veggies are roasting, finely chop the garlic. In a small bowl, combine the cherry sauce, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, garlic and a splash of water.
When the veggies have 10 minutes cook time remaining, place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then add the cherry sauce and turn the chicken to coat, 1-2 minutes.
While the pork is resting, add the baby spinach leaves to the roasted onion, parsnip and beetroot and gently toss to combine.
Roughly chop the parsley leaves. Slice the seared pork. Divide the roast veggie toss, cheesy potatoes and pork between plates. Spoon over any remaining cherry sauce from the pan. Garnish with the parsley. Serve with the mayonnaise.
