Toss together roasted eggplant, potato, tomato and onion for the ultimate accompaniment to balance out all that crunchy golden goodness.

Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. Cut eggplant into 1cm chunks. Slice tomato and onion (see ingredients) into wedges.
• Place diced bacon and veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. • Drizzle over the honey and set aside to cool.
TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.
• Meanwhile, place chicken breast between two sheets of baking paper. Pound chicken with a meat mallet or rolling pin until an even thickness, about 1cm. • In a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour and Nan's special seasoning. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs. • Dip chicken into flour mixture to coat, then into egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. • Cook crumbed chicken in batches until golden and cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
TIP: Add extra oil if needed so the chicken does not stick to the pan.
• When roast veggies have cooled a little, add baby leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar to oven tray and gently toss to combine.
• Slice chicken. • Divide eggplant veggie toss and crumbed chicken between plates. Enjoy!
