Method:
1. Cut the pumpkin into 1cm chunks and the onion into thin wedges. Toss the pumpkin, onion and pears in the honey, oil, ginger and lemon. Place the vegetables and fruit on a foil lined tray and fan bake at 200˚c for 20 mins.
2. Pull the meat from the chicken, discarding the bones and the skin. Cut into large chunky pieces.
3. When veges have had their 20 mins add the chicken to them and return to the oven for a further 7 mins.
