You’re not going to believe how simple it is to make this Caesar-style salad yourself, from crunchy croutons to creamy aioli and tender chicken, topped with sharp Parmesan cheese and bacon. Once you’ve got this baby down, soggy supermarket salads will be a distant memory.

The recent wet and cold weather across New Zealand has impacted our regular supply of fresh ingredients and as such, what you receive may be slightly different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Slice onion into wedges. Cut carrot into thick half-moons. Cut beetroot into small chunks. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.

Little cooks: Kids can help toss the veggies.

• Meanwhile, cut or tear ciabatta into bite-sized chunks. • Add ciabatta to a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, toss to coat, then sprinkle over 1/2 the grated Parmesan cheese. Bake until golden, 5-8 minutes.

• While the croutons are baking, place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and turn to coat.

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate to rest. • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

• To the bowl with the bacon, add a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil, then season. • Add salad leaves, roasted veggies and croutons, then gently toss to combine.

• Slice golden chicken. Divide bacon and crouton salad between plates. • Top with chicken, spooning over any resting juices. • Sprinkle over remaining Parmesan cheese. Drizzle with garlic aioli to serve. Enjoy!

Little cooks: Kids can add the finishing touch by sprinkling the cheese on top.
