Cooking Instructions:

Before cooking:

PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 200⁰C (FAN BAKE). BOIL THE KETTLE.
1. TO COOK THE CHICKEN:

Remove the free-range chicken thigh from its packaging and pat dry with paper towel. Arrange the thigh on an oven tray lined with baking paper and spray with oil. Sprinkle over Cajun spice blend. Cook in the preheated oven for 18-20mins.
2. TO COOK THE BROCCOLINI:

Pour boiling water into a medium pot from the kettle and place over a high heat. Trim the ends off the broccolini. Once the water is boiling add the broccolini and blanch for 2-3 mins. Drain into a colander.
3. TO MAKE THE APPLE AND ALMOND SLAW:

Place red and green cabbage into a salad bowl. Thinly slice the spring onion on the diagonal. Finely slice half the apple. Finely chop the curly parsley. Mix the apple, spring onion and half the parsley through the red and green cabbage with the ranch dressing. Sprinkle over toasted almonds.
TO SERVE:

Arrange broccolini on a plate and top with Cajun chicken pieces. Serve apple and almond slaw on the side. Sprinkle over rest of the parsley.
