Recipe By Sarah Todd

Ingredients

  • 1 can cannellini beans, drained

  • 2 tomatoes, diced

  • ½ red onion, thinly sliced

  • 1 cup parsley, chopped

  • 1 tsp sumac

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ lemon juiced

  • 2 tbsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

  • 500g chicken drumstick fillets

  • 250g yoghurt

  • 2 tsp smoked paprika

  • ½ tsp ground cumin

  • ½ tsp ground coriander

  • ½ tsp chilli powder

  • 1 lemon, zested and juiced

  • 4 garlic cloves, crushed

  • 2 tsp flaky sea salt

to serve

  • baba ganoush

  • roasted red peppers

  • fresh herbs

Method

  • Place the drained cannellini beans in a large bowl and add chopped tomatoes, sliced red onions and chopped parsley to the beans. Stir well and set aside.

  • In a small bowl, mix sumac, aleppo pepper, salt, lemon juice and olive oil and pour it on the salad.

  • Combine all the ingredients for the yoghurt marinade (apart from chicken) in a large bowl and stir together.

  • Add the chicken and massage the marinade in with your hands, then leave to marinate (or ideally overnight). Preheat a grill to the highest setting. Thread chicken onto skewers.

  • Place on a grill pan or bbq and cook for about 5 minutes either side – you want the yoghurt to char and blister slightly, but keep an eye on it and don't let it burn too much.

  • Ensure the chicken is thoroughly cooked by cutting one of the pieces in half and ensuring the juices run clear.
