Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut cauliflower into small florets. Cut half the carrot into bite-sized chunks. • Place cauliflower and chopped carrot on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then roast until tender, 15-20 minutes. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. Grate the remaining carrot.
Place your hand flat on top of the chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season as above.
• While the chicken is cooking, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with the butter. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water, grated carrot and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and a drizzle of olive oil. Stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from the heat. Set aside until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. • Fluff up with a fork, then stir through the roasted veggies and baby spinach.
Return the frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken steaks and cook until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
