🥄 Texture

Tender, bite-sized chicken pieces with a lightly seared exterior and soft, fork-tender vegetables. Pumpkin and potatoes will be creamy inside while beetroots remain slightly denser and earthy, giving a pleasant contrast.

👃 Aroma

Warm, roasted aromatics with savory chicken notes and a faint sweetness from caramelized pumpkin and beets. A background of toasted oil and a mild garlic/pepper scent rounds out the pan-roasted profile.

🍷 Pairs Well With

A crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a light-bodied rosé; alternatively a clean pilsner or sparkling water with lemon to refresh the palate.

🥗 Side Dishes

Simple mixed green salad with a light vinaigrette, crusty bread or dinner rolls, or a side of herbed couscous or steamed green beans.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the chicken into bite-sized chunks and chop the pumpkin, potatoes, and beetroots into 1-inch cubes. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken chunks and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the outside turns white.

  3. 3

    Add all the chopped vegetables (pumpkin, potatoes, and beetroots) to the pan. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using. Stir everything together.

  4. 4

    Reduce heat to medium, cover the pan with a lid or foil, and cook for 15-18 minutes. Stir halfway through cooking to ensure even cooking.

  5. 5

    Check if the chicken is cooked through (no pink inside) and vegetables are tender when pierced with a fork. If needed, cook for another 2-3 minutes. Serve hot.
