Sticky Orange Chicken & Root Veg Traybake
Ingredients
4 medium carrots, cut into batons
4 small beetroots, scrubbed and thickly sliced
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
125ml/4fl oz orange marmalade
2 tbsp sherry vinegar
3 chicken breasts, pounded slightly to flatten a bit
couscous, to serve
Method
Heat oven to 190c/170c fan/gas 5. Arrange the carrots and beetroot in 1 large or 2 small lipped baking trays. Drizzle with the oil, add the cumin seeds, season and toss to combine. Roast for 25 minutes until browned around the edges.
Put the marmalade and vinegar in a small bowl and mix to combine.
Put the chicken in a large bowl and season. Pour over the sauce and mix to coat well. After the veg has been cooking for about 25 mins, place the chicken pieces on top and roast for a further 10 mins.
We ended up roasting the chicken for more like 20 minutes. We also used red win vinegar instead of sherry because we couldn't find any sherry vinegar. The beetroot didn't cook through and got left to one side, which is a shame, but other than that it was bloody delicious
