4 tbsp olive oil
600g frozen mixed roasted veg
2 x 400g cans cannellini beans , drained and rinsed
145g fresh pesto

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Rub the chicken with the oil, then generously season the skin and inside the cavity with salt and black pepper. Arrange the veg in a large roasting tin and sit the chicken on top. Roast for 1 hr, uncovered.
