Curry Roasted Chicken with Spiced Carrots and Green Beans

As we continue to explore delicious, health-focused meals that complement our 6-Week Summer Fitness Challenge, this week we feature a dish that combines robust flavours with nutritional benefits: Roasted Chicken with Spiced Carrots and Crisp Green Beans. This meal is simple to prepare, packed with flavour, and perfect for two servings, making it an excellent choice for a nourishing dinner.

Ingredients:

2 servings

• Chicken Breasts: 2 large chicken breasts
• Carrots: 150g, peeled and cut into sticks
• Green Beans: 150g, trimmed
• Potatoes: 200g, diced
• Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
• Paprika: 1 teaspoon
• Garlic Powder: 1/2 teaspoon
• Mustard Seeds: 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt and Pepper: to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Set your oven to 200°C (400°F). This high temperature is ideal for roasting, ensuring your vegetables and chicken cook to perfection.
2. Prepare the Vegetables:
   • Toss the diced potatoes and carrot sticks in one tablespoon of olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Spread them out on a baking tray in a single layer to ensure they roast evenly.
3. Roast the Vegetables:
   • Place the tray in the oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and the potatoes are golden and crispy.
4. Cook the Chicken:
   • While the vegetables are roasting, heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika. Cook each side for about 6-7 minutes or until fully cooked through and golden brown.
5. Prepare the Green Beans:
   • In a small pot, bring water to a boil. Add the green beans and a pinch of salt, cooking them for about 4-5 minutes until they are bright green and slightly tender. Drain and toss with mustard seeds for a burst of flavor.
6. Serve:
   • Arrange the roasted carrots and potatoes on a plate, place the cooked chicken breast alongside, and add a serving of green beans. The blend of spices and textures makes this dish a delightful and balanced meal.
