Roasting the chicken on top of the veggies in the same pan allows the aromas of fennel to infuse into the chicken making for a delicious and super quick mid-week dinner.

Ingredients

Baby carrot

12 individual, (1 bunch)

Broccoli

350 g, cut into florets

Fennel

1 small, thinly sliced

Green string beans

Gravy powder

1 tbs, (1 x 20g packet)

Oil spray

Instructions
