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.
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.
A crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a light-bodied rosé; alternatively a clean pilsner or sparkling water with lemon to refresh the palate.
Simple mixed green salad with a light vinaigrette, crusty bread or dinner rolls, or a side of herbed couscous or steamed green beans.
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.
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.
Add all the chopped vegetables (pumpkin, potatoes, and beetroots) to the pan. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using. Stir everything together.
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.
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.
