This is one of those low-fuss autumn dinners where the tray does most of the work. The pumpkin goes sweet and caramelised, the chickpeas crisp up nicely, and Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt brings a bright lemony kick. Swipe some whipped feta underneath and dinner is sorted.

  • 800g pumpkin, cut into 3cm wedges
  • 400g tin chickpeas, drained and patted dry
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1½ tablespoons Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt
  • 150g feta
  • ⅓ cup Greek yoghurt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped

Step 1: Roast

Heat the oven to 220C fan-forced. Tip the pumpkin, chickpeas and red onion onto a large tray, drizzle with the olive oil, then toss with 1 tablespoon of Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt. Spread everything out well and roast for 25 minutes.

Step 2: Finish

Turn everything over, crumble over half the feta, then scatter on the remaining ½ tablespoon of Chooki's Zest Chicken Salt. Roast for another 10 minutes until the pumpkin is golden at the edges and the chickpeas have a bit of crunch.

Step 3: Serve

Mash the remaining feta with the Greek yoghurt and lemon juice until thick and creamy. Spread the whipped feta onto a serving plate, spoon over the hot tray bake, then finish with the parsley.

Tip: Pat the chickpeas really dry before they hit the tray, that is what helps them crisp instead of steaming.
