Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Cut the top off each bulb of garlic and wrap the bulbs in foil. Bake until soft, about 1 hour.
  2. Meanwhile, coat a medium ovenproof pan (with a lid) with nonstick cooking spray and set over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken breasts with pepper and cook until golden-brown, 4–5 minutes on each side. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
  3. Add the carrots and shallot to the pan and fry until the shallot is soft, about 2 minutes. Return the chicken, skinned-side down, to the pan. Add the tomatoes, stock, wine and rosemary. Bring to a simmer. Cover and transfer to the oven. Bake the chicken until the juices run clear, 30–45 minutes.
  4. Remove the garlic cloves from their skins with the tip of a sharp knife and mash until smooth. Stir the garlic into the sauce and sprinkle with parsley. Serve chicken breasts with the roasted garlic-tomato sauce over the cooked fettuccine.

Nutritionists recommend 30 g fibre every day, but most of us consume only half that amount. Much of the fibre in this dish comes from the tomatoes, which also provide healthy amounts of vitamin C and beta carotene. Roasted garlic can also be stirred into soup, tossed in salad or spread on bread.
