This is the meat you find in
chicken doner kebabs that you might find yourself eating at 2 am!…..try this
one without the hangover, lol
Serve 6-8
Ingredients
1 kg thighs- this is about 8
thighs
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp cumin
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp cinnamon
Method
Mix everything together and
marinate overnight if you have time. Cook in a large pan with a little oil over
a medium heat for 4 minutes each side, then take out and put onto a clean chopping
board. The chicken doesn’t need to be fully cooked at his stage. Using tongs
and a knife slice thinly and put back into the pan. Cook a further 5 minutes or
so, you want it to have nice golden crispy bits and the chicken will be cooked
through.
You can have this as a salad with
tabouli, avocado and other salad ingredients
-or as I did in lebanese bread
with quinoa tabouli, lettuce, avocado, a drizzle of mayo and sweet chili sauce,
it was amazing!
Quinoa tabouli
This serve 2 if you are using this as a salad with protein,
or 4-6 as a side dish
Ingredients
1 bunch of parsley, washed, stalks removed and chopped
2 ripe tomatoes, quartered, seeds scoops out, then dice
tomato- seeds can be used in tomato pasta sauce, or frozen until you need it.
½ red onion, fine dice
1 ruby red grapefruit, peeled and chopped- or just use the
juice of 1 lemon
¼ cup of quinoa, cooked (1/2 cup cooked quinoa)
A splash of olive oil
Salt
Method
Put everything in a bowl and mix together. Before I put the
grapefruit in a give it a squeeze to let some of the juice out.
Lentil are a nice addition with the quinoa or in place of
the quinoa. Mint is also nice in this.
