• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• In a medium bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs
(see ingredients) and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
• Place chicken breast on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then season
generously with salt. Turn to coat. Squeeze half the creamy pesto dressing
onto the chicken and sprinkle over panko-Parmesan mixture, gently pressing so
it sticks.
• Drizzle chicken with a little more olive oil. Bake until crumb is golden and
chicken is cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 14-18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut potato into bite-sized chunks.
• Spread potato over a large microwave-safe plate. Cover with a damp paper towel.
Microwave potatoes on high for 3 minutes.
• Drain any excess liquid, then place potatoes on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle
with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
• Spread out evenly, then roast until golden and tender, 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut apple (see ingredients) into thin sticks.
• In a large bowl, combine the honey with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil.
• Add apple and slaw mix, tossing to combine. Season to taste with salt
and pepper.
• Divide pesto-Parmesan crusted chicken, roast potato chunks and slaw
between plates.
• Serve with remaining creamy pesto dressing. Enjoy!
