• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut beetroot into thin wedges. Cut onion into thick wedges. Cut carrot and white turnip into bite-sized chunks. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide the veggies between two trays.
• Meanwhile, place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • Crush pumpkin seeds in their packet using a rolling pin or with a pestle and mortar, until resembling fine crumbs.
• In a large bowl, combine Aussie spice blend and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Season, then add chicken and turn to coat. • Add crushed pumpkin seeds and the panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients). Turn chicken again, pressing into seed mixture to coat.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. • When oil is hot, cook crumbed chicken until golden and cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (cook in batches if pan is getting crowded).
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• When the roast veggies are done, remove tray from oven and add baby spinach leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar. Gently toss to combine.
• Slice the chicken. • Divide roast veggie toss and seed-crusted chicken between plates. • Serve with Greek-style yoghurt. Enjoy
