Accompaniment

Description

This recipe is inspired by lazy strolls around the Greek countryside, the smells of the herbs at your feet and the waft of a nearby taverna grilling chicken souvlaki. just scrummy.

Method

1
Throw all of the above into a bowl & cover and allow to marinate in the fridge overnight, or at least 2 hours prior to cooking.

I then put all of the meat and liquid into a tagine, cook at about 180 deg for an hour and then finally grill under a high heat until golden brown. I find the tagine method keeps the chicken more moist.

Serve with a salad of mixed leaves, juicy beef tomatoes, kalamata olives & feta drizzled with olive oil & lemon juice, and some of the same herbs.
