INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1 tsp Za'atar Spice Blend
1 tsp Olive Oil (for chicken)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for cauliflower)
1 tbsp Tahini
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Water
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Rub it with 1 teaspoon olive oil, sprinkle with za'atar, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Place the seasoned chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt, pepper, and a light sprinkle of za'atar for an extra flavor kick. Spread them on another baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the chicken and cauliflower in the oven. Bake the chicken for about 20-25 minutes or until its internal temperature reaches 165°F. Roast the cauliflower for 18-20 minutes until golden and tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by whisking together tahini, lemon juice, water, a pinch of salt, and pepper in a small bowl until smooth and creamy. Adjust the water quantity if needed for desired consistency.
Once cooked, slice the chicken and serve alongside the roasted cauliflower. Drizzle the creamy lemon-tahini sauce over the chicken or use it as a dipping sauce.
Enjoy this balanced meal that delivers a satisfying crunch, zesty sauce, and a delightful blend of Middle Eastern flavors.
