Char-grilled spiced chicken with minted red pepper salad

Serves: 2

Ingredients

  • 8 pieces chicken fillets
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • ½ tsp hot paprika
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tbsp natural yogurt

You will also need

  • Few mixed salad leaves
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 2 inch piece cucumber
  • 2 tbsp natural yogurt
  • few fresh mint leaves
  • Juice of a lime
  • fresh seasoning
  • 2 red peppers
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • Juice of a lime
  • Fresh seasoning

Method

For best results, the chicken and red peppers should be cooked on a barbeque for a nice, char-grilled flavour. Start this recipe by making the marinade for the chicken. Mix the dry spices together with the natural yogurt, oil and lime juice. Season well with salt and pepper, and then add in the chicken fillets. Coat them all over with the spicy marinade and leave in the fridge for 1 hour for the spices to infuse the chicken. Just before you are ready to cook the chicken, prepare the salad. Put the salad leaves and sliced red onion in a bowl. Remove the skin off the cucumber, and slice into thin chunks. Add these to the salad, along with the yogurt, mint leaves, lime juice and lots of fresh seasoning and mix well. Divide the salad between 2 serving plates. Meanwhile, de-seed the red peppers and cut them into 4 pieces. Drizzle over some oil and cook the marinated chicken fillets and peppers on the hot charcoal grill. The chicken will develop a wonderful charred spicy flavour while cooking. When ready, place the cooked peppers on the salad and top off with the spicy chicken fillets.

Method

Biex ikollok l-aħjar riżultat, it-tiġieġ u l-bżar aħmar iridu jinxtwew fuq barbikju tal-faħam biex ikollhom togħma ta’ xiwi. Ibda r-riċetta billi tlesti l-immarinar għal mat-tiġieġ. Ħallat il-ħwawar niexfa maż-żerriegħa tal-ġunġlien, il-jogurt, iż-żejt u l-meraq tal-lime. Żid ftit bżar u melħ u itfa’ l-biċċiet tat-tiġieġ fit-taħlita. Iksihom b’dan l-immarinar pikkanti u poġġihom fil-friġġ għal siegħa biex jieħdu t-togħma tal-ħwawar. Ftit qabel tkun se ssajjarhom, lesti l-insalata. Poġġi l-weraq tal-insalata u l-basal fi skutella. Qaxxar il-ħjara u qattagħha f’biċċiet żgħar. Żidhom mal-insalata u żid ukoll il-jogurt, il-weraq tan-nagħniegħ, il-meraq tal-lime u l-ħwawar friski. Ħawwad kollox flimkien. Qassam l-insalata f’żewġ platti. Imbagħad neħħi ż-żerriegħa tal-bżar aħmar u qattagħhom f’erba’ biċċiet. Ferrex ftit żejt u sajjar it-tiġieġ immarinat u l-bżar aħmar fuq grilja taħraq. B’hekk it-tiġieġ ikollu togħma tajba u pikkanti. Meta jkunu saru, poġġi l-bżar mixwi fuq l-insalata u fuqu itfa’ l-biċċiet tat-tiġieġ imħawra.
