Cooking Instructions:

BEFORE COOKING:

Preheat the oven to 210⁰c (fan bake).
1. TO PREPARE THE VEGETABLES:

Line an oven tray with baking paper. Chop the cauliflower into small bite sized pieces and place on the oven tray with the steamed kumara. Spray with oil and season with salt.
2. TO COOK THE CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES:

Open the pack of free-range chicken thighs and pat dry with a paper towel. Slice the chicken thighs into 3 even pieces and place on the oven tray with the vegetables. Spoon the turmeric marinade over the chicken and cauliflower and toss to coat well. Season with salt, place in the oven and bake for 18-20 mins until vegetables are caramelising around the edges and chicken is cooked through.
TO SERVE:

Place roasted vegetables onto plates and top with turmeric chicken. Arrange some rocket on top, dollop with parsley tzatziki and sprinkle with toasted almonds. Serve any remaining rocket on the side drizzled with olive oil.
