How To Make Chargrilled Paprika Lemon Chicken:
Serves 6
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
3 small chickens or poussins, boned and butterflied (or ask your butcher to do it)
3 lemons, cut into halves
30ml cold pressed rapeseed oil
Pinch sea salt
Cracked black pepper
Bunch of mint
Bunch of coriander
120ml Bill’s Dressing, or your favourite salad dressing
Handful of baby kale
195g garlic mayonnaise
For The Spice Mix:
5g each of paprika, chilli powder, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, cumin and coriander, mixed together.
For The Couscous:
240ml vegetable stock
300g giant couscous
3 tsp rapeseed oil
For The Pink Coleslaw:
100g carrots, grated
100g white cabbage, finely slices
100g celeriac, julienne
Handful parsley, chopped
100g pink or red cabbage, finely sliced
30g kale leaves
Salt and pepper, to season
How To Make:
1.) Prepare the couscous by bringing the vegetable stock to the boil. Toss the dry couscous with the oil in a large bowl until it coats every grain. Pour the hot stock over the couscous and stir well, cover with clingfilm and allow to sit for 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
2.) Meanwhile, chargrill the lemon halves on a griddle pan or barbecue for a few minutes and set aside.
3.) Rub the oil, salt, pepper and the spice mix into the chickens. Cook for a few minutes either side on the griddle pan or barbeque. Then place in the oven to cook for 10 minutes, or until cooked through. Leave to rest for 5-10 mins before cutting into halves.
4.) Remove the clingfilm on the couscous and fluff with a fork. Mix the pink slaw with the mint, coriander and the couscous and add the Bill’s dressing, or alternative salad dressing. Place the chicken on a plate, add the slaw mix and garnish with the kale leaves and grilled lemon. Lastly, spoon on the mayonnaise and serve outside, if the weather allows it!
