Crispy, golden roast chicken and parmesan roasted cauliflower bring savoury, umami flavours that pair seamlessly with
the Jaraman Chardonnay. The wine’s acidity balances the richness, while a lemony yoghurt sauce ties into its bright citrus
notes. A simple, well-matched combination. Recipe by Tammi Kwok.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 bone-in, skin-on chicken marylands
  • 2 tbsp garlic-infused olive oil
  • 1 tsp picked thyme leaves
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Steamed mixed greens, to serve
  • Crispy Parmesan-Crusted Cauliflower
  • ½ head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • Lemon Yoghurt Sauce
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ½ cup Greek-style yoghurt
  • 1 garlic clove, finely minced

METHOD

1Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper. Drizzle the chicken with the garlic-infused olive oil and toss with thyme, and a generous pinch of salt and black pepper.

2Roast the chicken for 35 - 45 minutes, or until golden-brown and cooked through.

3While the chicken roasts, combine the cauliflower florets on a lined baking tray with the olive oil and smoked paprika. Roast for 25 minutes, or until tender. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and bake for a further 5 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and crisp.

4While the cauliflower roasts, combine the ingredients for the lemon yoghurt sauce in a small bowl and season to taste with a pinch of salt and pepper.

5Divide the roast chicken with thyme and crispy cauliflower between plates. Serve with the steamed greens and a dollop of lemon yoghurt sauce.
