Sticky honey chicken salad
Sticky honey chicken thighs, a punchy sweetcorn salsa and chewy giant couscous to soak it all up. Sweet, spicy, salty & fresh - a summer banger.
Serves 3.
▪ 600g chicken thighs
▪ 1 tsp each of onion granules, garlic granules, smoked paprika
▪ 300g giant couscous
▪ 1/2 tbsp honey
▪ 2 tsp crispy chilli oil
▪ 1 tin sweetcorn
▪ handful of cherry tomatoes, diced
▪ 2 spring onions, finely sliced
▪ 1 tbsp fresh coriander, finely diced
▪ 1 tsp red wine vinegar
▪ a handful of feta cheese, crumbled
also, olive oil.
Method:
• Season the chicken with the onion granules, garlic granules, smoked paprika, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle over some olive oil and toss to coat.
• Get the couscous on to boil and run under cold water once done.
• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken thighs and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until the chicken is almost cooked through.
• Lower the heat to medium and drizzle the honey and chilli oil over the thighs. Use tongs to ensure each piece is coated and allow to bubble away for a few more minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through and begins to caramelise in some places.
• Carefully remove the chicken from the pan to a clean board. Then, in the same pan (to use up the gorgeous flavour!) tip in the tin of sweetcorn. Whack the heat up to high and allow to cook for a few minutes, until charring in places.
• Now, we can make the salsa. In a bowl, add the tomatoes, spring onions, coriander, vinegar, feta, a good pinch of salt and pepper and the cooked sweetcorn. Gently stir to combine.
• I like to serve up the bowl with some diced cucumber for freshness, 2 thighs, couscous and a generous helping of salsa. ENJOY!
