For 4 people 8 chicken thighs.
MARINADE
150ml sweet chilli sauce, 50mi fish sauce, juice of two limes
1 tbsp grated ginger, 1 tsp chopped red chilli,
1 tbsp chopped mint, 1 tbsp chopped coriander.
METHOD
Mix all ingredients together and marinade overnight, I always do this in a zip-lock bag. Preheat fan oven to 190. Bake uncovered for 35 minutes.
This is my favourite burger. A simple morning roll, buttered. Brush a large Portobella mushroom with olive oil and bake for 10 minutes. Add a small amount of blue cheese, I use St Agur, and eat. Great!
This is really just an assembly job and is on my site only as a reminder of how great a dish it is. Scallops seared, streaky bacon grilled, blackpudding fried, peas purieed and mashed tatties. This is a great main course.
Ingredients (serves 4)
Method Fry onions, peppers and chicken in olive oil until softened. Stir in rice and add chickpeas, harissa, olives, lemon and stock. Cover and simmer for 40 minutes then add spinach, recover and replace on heat for 6 minutes or until the spinach is wilted. Stir in spinach then scatter the crumbed feta and chopped mint. Take off the heat, cover and leave for 10 minutes for the flavour to develop and feta to soften. Scrummy.
