Cooking Instructions:

BEFORE COOKING:

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

Line an oven tray with baking paper. Remove the free-range chicken breast from its packaging and cut into 3 even pieces. Place onto the tray, drizzle with oil and add the Milanese crumb. Season with salt and toss to coat both sides of the chicken in the crumb. Bake in the oven for 10-12 mins or until chicken is cooked through.
2. TO PREPARE THE ASPARAGUS:

Snap the woody ends off the asparagus and discard – they will naturally snap in the right place and cut into thirds. Finely chop the curly parsley, discarding the stalks. Open the pack of steamed quinoa, squeezing gently on the bag to break up any large clumps.
3. TO COOK THE QUINOA:

Spray a non-stick frying pan with oil and place over a medium-high heat. Once hot add the asparagus and cook stirring often for 1-2 mins. Add the baby spinach and cook for 1-2 mins. Add the quinoa to the pan, season with salt and cook for 1 min. Add the peas and pour in the creamy basil sauce then cook for a further 1-2 mins.
TO SERVE:

Spoon quinoa primavera and charred asparagus into a bowl. Top with Parmesan chicken Milanese. Sprinkle over the shaved Parmesan and parsley
