Quick and gluten-free chicken roast for busy weeknights. Ready in 45 minutes.
Ingredients:
  • 70g butter, chopped, at room temperature
  • 62.50 ml fresh coriander leaves, finely chopped
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh green chilli
  • 2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1 lime, rind finely grated, juiced
  • 2 bunches baby carrots, trimmed, scrubbed
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 4 (about 1kg) chicken supremes, French-trimmed
  • 200g green beans, trimmed
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan forced and line 2 baking trays with baking paper. In a bowl, mix together the butter, coriander, chilli, ginger, and lime rind until well combined.
  • In a bowl, mix together the carrot, onion, honey, 3 tsp of the butter mixture, and 2 tablespoons lime juice. Season to taste. Transfer the mixture onto a prepared tray and roast on the top oven shelf for 12 minutes.
  • Heat a large non-stick frying pan until hot. Spray the chicken with oil, season, and cook skin-side down until golden, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Transfer to a baking tray and top each piece with 1 teaspoon of the butter mixture.
  • Roast the chicken on the lower oven shelf until cooked through, about 15-18 minutes. Keep warm.
  • Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan forced. Add beans to the vegetable tray and toss them in the pan juices to coat. Roast for another 6-8 minutes until the beans are tender-crisp. Serve the chicken with the vegetables and top with the remaining butter. Enjoy!
