Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Slice the chicken thighs into thin strips, then add them to a bowl with the ground paprika, groundcumin, the juice of 1/2[1]lemon and a drizzle of olive oil
Season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up
2
Put the chicken strips in the fridge to marinate until later
Meanwhile, dice the red onion[s] as finely as you can
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick with a matching lid) with a drizzle of olive oil over a low heat
Once hot, add the diced onion and cook for 6 min or until softened
3
Boil a kettle
Soak your skewers in cold water (this prevents them from burning whilst cooking)
Dissolve the Knorrchicken stock cube[s] and tomato paste in 400ml [750ml]boiled water – this is your tomatostock
4
Once the onion has softened, add the bulgur wheat and sultanas and cook for 1 min or until coated in the oil
Add the tomatostock to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, for 15 min or until the water has absorbed and the bulgur is cooked – this is your tomatobulgur pilaf
5
Meanwhile, preheat the grill to high
Thread the marinatedchicken strips evenly onto 4 [8]skewers, leaving a small gap between each piece – these are your chicken shish kebabs
6
Add the chicken shish kebabs to a baking tray (use tin foil to avoid mess!)
Put the tray under the grill for 12-14 min, turning once halfway, or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) and slightly charred
Meanwhile, add the natural yoghurt to a bowl with a pinch of salt and a small squeezeof lemon juice (save the rest for later!) – this is your lemonyoghurt
7
Meanwhile, grate the carrot[s]
Dice the tomato[es]
Add theremaining lemon juice to a large bowl with 2 tbsp [4 tbsp]olive oil and a pinch of salt
Add the grated carrot, diced tomato and baby leaf salad and give everything a good mix up
