- Warm Chicken Salad with Feta
Ingredients
- 4 free range chicken breasts , cut into 4-5 chunks each
- 3 red peppers
- 4 courgettes
- 3 tsp dried thyme
- 5 tbsp garlic oil
- 2 lemons , zested, and the juice of half reserved
- 3 pinches Maldon sea salt
- 200g feta cheese
- 1 bag salad leaves
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to maximum temperature (usually around 270C).
Step 2
Cut each red pepper into 4 strips from root to tip. Cut the courgettes diagonally across into inch-thick slices and put both the peppers and the courgettes into a large mixing bowl. Pour over the garlic oil, thyme, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and a generous pinch of pepper and mix well.
Step 3
Line the largest baking tray you can find with baking paper and place the courgettes and peppers (skin side down) onto the baking tray, evenly spread out. Then, using the remaining marinade in the bowl, add in the chunks of chicken breast and coat them quickly in the marinade and add them to the baking tray also.
Step 4
Place the baking tray in the oven and roast the contents for 16 minutes, until the peppers have browned and the chicken has lightly golden edges.
Step 5
Arrange the peppers and courgettes onto a platter, interspersed with mixed leaves of your choice. Add the chicken to the platter, crumble the feta cheese over the plate, drizzle with olive oil and serve. This can also be enjoyed as part of a picnic too and stored in airtight containers. The peppers, courgettes and chicken can be used within 2-3 days.
Step 6
Tip: this dish is delicious served with Beronia Viura - it's zingy citrus flavours marry on the rich creamy palate.
