Instructions

Prep

1 Prep

  • Preheat the oven to 210°/190°C fan.
  • Pick the thyme leaves, saving some stems whole.
  • Trim and roughly chop the kale.
Bake squash

2 Bake squash

  • Add the chopped butternut to a lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with the potato seasoning and thyme leaves (saving some for garnish).
  • Mix to coat the butternut fully in the seasoning.
  • Bake for 10 min.
Bake chicken

3 Bake chicken

  • Pat dry the chicken breasts. Drizzle with a small amount of oil.
  • Sprinkle over the smoked salt and smoked paprika.
  • Add the chicken to the same baking tray as the butternut.
  • Bake the chicken and butternut for a further 18-20 min, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the butternut is tender.
  • Once cooked, remove from the oven.
  • Set aside.
Cook orzo

4 Cook orzo

  • Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with the butter.
  • Add the orzo and fry for 2-3 min until slightly golden.
  • Add the measured water and 0.5 stock cube.
  • Mix well. Bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, lower the heat.
  • Simmer the orzo for 8-10 min (stirring regularly).
Finish orzo

5 Finish orzo

  • When the orzo is tender, add the kale to the pan.
  • Mix through, and cook for 2-3 min.
  • When the kale has wilted, add the baked butternut, cream, garlic onion powder and a pinch of chilli flakes (spicy!).
  • Cook for a further 2-3 min, until the squash has warmed through and the sauce has thickened.
Tip! Add an extra splash of water if you want the orzo more saucy.
