Preparation
1
Bake the chicken

• 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 with olive oil. Bake until crumb is golden and chicken is cooked 
through (when no longer pink inside), 14-18 minutes.

2
Roast the potato

• 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, 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.

 
Little cooks: Help toss the potatoes!

3
Make the salad

• Meanwhile, cut apple (see ingredients) into bite-sized chunks.
• In a large bowl, combine the honey with a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil.
• Add apple and deluxe salad mix, tossing to combine. Season with salt and 
pepper to taste. 


Little cooks: Help combine the ingredients for the dressing.
