A hearty salad filled with seasonal stone fruits. Feel free to swap in nectarines or apricots for the peaches if that’s what you have. For a vegetarian main you could replace the chicken with crumbled feta or goat’s cheese. Best served warm but you can make the components ahead and bring them to room temperature before adding a little extra oil and balsamic glaze to serve.

Method:

Heat oven to 190°c and then line the bottom of one large and one small roasting tin with baking parchment.
Place the red onion and peach wedges into the larger tin and nestle in the chicken. Brush the chicken with 1 - 2 tbsp of balsamic glaze, season with salt and pepper and drizzle over 1 tbsp of the olive oil.
Mix the beetroot with a tbsp of oil and the remaining balsamic glaze. Sprinkle with salt and place both trays in the oven to roast for approximately 20 - 25 minutes.
