Lemon

Feta

Flatbread

Wholegrain Mustard

Radish

Dill

Garlic Clove

Cucumber

Yoghurt

Finely mince the dill, finely grate the garlic, add the garlic and half the dill into a bowl with the mustard and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Season generously with salt and plenty of freshly cracked black pepper.

Using scissors, snip the chicken into 3cm chunks, toss into the marinade. Thread the chicken onto some metal skewers. Place the skewers onto a baking tray and roast until cooked through,15-20 mins. Switch the grill onto high and grill until starting to char, flip and continue cooking until charred in places on both sides of the skewers.

Meanwhile, quarter the radishes and chop the cucumber into 1cm chunks. Add to a bowl, with the juice of the lemon and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Crumble the feta and toss through the salad.

Reheat the flatbreads, top with the skewers, salad, the rest of the dill, and a dollop of Greek yoghurt.

So good, my fussy 11yr old ate everything in front of her! Resounding success in our house.

Lovely and kids enjoyed it  - add red onion to the salad

Delicious! We made flatbreads for this recipe and it was all round amazing!

Delicious and easy. Can add / swap out tomato for cucumber too. 👍

I personally think some of the other Mob chicken skewer recipes are better but was still yum!

Such a simple and quick recipe and really tasty. Loved it!

Charred and fragrant lemongrass chicken thighs with rice and a fresh rainbow salad.

Caramelised Lemongrass Chicken Bowl

Boneless Skinless Chicken Thigh

Lemongrass

Red Chilli

Brown Sugar

Soy Sauce

Balsamic Vinegar

Water

Red Cabbage

Carrot

Mint

Lime

Peanut

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the chicken into a bowl. Add the lemongrass, ginger, red chilli, garlic, sugar, soy, balsamic vinegar, and water into a blender. Blend until smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed, and pour over the chicken. Toss together. 

Transfer the marinated chicken onto an oiled baking tray, pouring over all of the marinade. Slide into the oven for 20-25 mins, until cooked through. Check half way through and add a splash of water if the marinade is caramelising too quickly.

For the rainbow salad, use a peeler to shred the red cabbage and slice the carrots into thin matchsticks. Pick the mint leaves, discarding the stems, then combine the veg and herbs with the juice of a lime. Season to taste with salt and some sugar. Crush your peanuts.

Reheat the rice and serve onto plates. Slice the chicken and place on top with some rainbow salad. Finish with a sprinkling of crushed peanuts.

This was really tasty! We marinated the chicken overnight too for extra flavour. Our chicken didn’t caramelise like the recipie but it was still delicious. 

really fresh and tasty - although the caramelisation didn’t work for me, there was a lot of water left in the dish, kept cooking but it just left the chicken dry. I would happily make it again if this was fixed!
