Piri Piri Chicken

Corn Mustard Sauce

Grain Salad

Method

Piri Piri Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the piri piri sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Place the whole chicken in a large resealable bag or dish and pour the marinade over it, ensuring it is well coated. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  3. 3

    Roast the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in a roasting pan. Roast for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste occasionally with the pan juices.

Corn Mustard Sauce

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small saucepan, combine the sweet corn, yellow mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 5

    Cook the Sauce

    Heat over medium heat until warmed through, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Grain Salad

  1. 6

    Cook the Quinoa

    Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of quinoa with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and let cool.

  2. 7

    Prepare Salad Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the cooled quinoa, cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, chopped red onion, and parsley.

  3. 8

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt and black pepper. Toss gently to combine.
