- Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Cut the kumara and beetroot (both unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Slice the red onion into 2cm wedges. Cut the carrot (unpeeled) into 2cm chunks. TIP: Cut the veggies to size so they cook in time.
- Place the kumara, beetroot, onion and carrot on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with the salt and season with pepper. Toss to coat, then arrange in a single layer. Roast until tender, 25-30 minutes. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.
- While the veggies are roasting, cut deep slits into the chicken breast at 1cm intervals, taking care to not slice all the way through. Place the chicken, cut-side up, on a second oven tray lined with baking paper and stuff the slits with the red pesto. Season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle over the shredded Cheddar cheese.
- Bake the chicken until cooked through, 12-16 minutes (depending on size). TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
