Steps
-
Preheat oven grill to high. Bring a full kettle to the boil. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Prepare your vegetables.
-
Toss caponata vegetables with oil and vinegar on prepared tray and season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly on tray. Grill on second from top shelf for 10-12 minutes, turning once, until vegetables are tender and starting to colour.
-
Heat oil in a medium fry-pan on medium-high heat. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and place in a medium bowl with garlic and rosemary. Season and toss to combine. Add chicken to pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes each side (depending on thickness), or until cooked through. Set aside, covered with foil, to rest for 2-3 minutes.
-
While veggies and chicken are cooking, place asparagus and salt in a medium, heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Cover with a plate and leave 4-5 minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain and refresh under cold water. Leave to drain.
-
While asparagus cooks, make mozzarella salad. Whisk oil, balsamic vinegar and honey in a large bowl. Dice tomato 1cm and add with drained asparagus and all remaining mozzarella salad ingredients to bowl. Toss together and season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
Slice chicken and add to a medium bowl along with resting juices. Add cannellini beans and lemon zest and juice to chicken, toss well to combine and season to taste.
-
To serve, divide mozzarella salad between plates and top with caponata and garlic and rosemary chicken. Sprinkle over remaining mozzarella.
