Ingredients:

6 cups pumpkin
720g
5 potatoes
1000g
2 cups carrots
240g
1 red onion
160g
1 short spray cooking spray oil
0.30g
3 cups bread crumbs
270g
1/2 cup fresh parsley
30g
1/2 cup all-purpose white wheat flour
60g
2 eggs
100g
4 chicken breasts
470g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the cubed pumpkin, potatoes, and carrots, and the wedged red onion on a large baking tray.
- Lightly spray the vegetables with cooking spray oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss the vegetables to ensure they are evenly coated with oil.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
2. Prepare the Breading Stations:
- In a shallow dish, combine the bread crumbs and fresh parsley.
- Place the flour in a separate shallow dish.
- Beat the eggs in a third shallow dish.
3. Bread the Chicken:
- Season each chicken breast with salt and pepper.
- Dredge each breast in flour, shaking off any excess.
- Dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Finally, press each chicken breast into the bread crumb mixture, ensuring an even and complete coating.
4. Cook the Chicken Schnitzel:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add a sufficient amount of cooking oil or spray to coat the skillet.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts to the skillet.
- Cook each breast for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through, with an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
5. Serve:
- Plate the roasted winter vegetables.
- Place a crispy chicken schnitzel beside or on top of the vegetables.
- Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
6. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while hot for the best texture and flavor.

Tips:

- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in a mixture of lemon juice, garlic, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before breading.

- Ensure the vegetables are cut into uniform sizes to ensure even roasting.

- Preheat the oven and use a hot baking sheet to help achieve crispier roasted vegetables.

- If you prefer a gluten-free option, you can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.

- Feel free to add other seasonal vegetables to the mix, such as Brussels sprouts or parsnips, for additional variety and flavor.

In summary, this chicken schnitzel with roasted winter vegetables recipe offers a balanced meal with a pleasing mix of textures and flavors. Enjoy the golden, crispy chicken alongside tender and sweet roasted vegetables for a comforting and filling dinner.
