Ingredients

200 g chicken breast fillets
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tbsp Classic Pesto
for the salad
100 g green beans
100 g sugar snap peas
8 fresh asparagus spears, woody ends removed

1½ tbsp Squeezy Basil Pesto
a squeeze of lemon juice
extra virgin olive oil, to drizzle
2 Little Gem lettuce hearts, cut into quarters

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C. In a small baking dish, mix together the chicken, tomatoes and pesto. Roast in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the chicken is completely cooked through. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.

For the salad, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Throw in all the green veg, bring back to the boil and cook for 2 minutes. Drain well then spoon over the pesto and lemon juice and season with pepper. Add a drizzle of oil if you think it needs it. Once the vegetables have cooled, mix through the lettuce and top with the pesto chicken.
