BLACKENED CHICKEN:
MANGO BEAN SALSA:
Instructions
- Pat the chicken dry thoroughly with kitchen paper. Toss in cornflour and shake off excess. Rub with dried spices and 1 tbsp oil. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.
- When you’re ready to cook, heat remaining 1 tbsp oil in a heavy-based pan over a medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and leave for around 5-6 minutes until the skin naturally comes away from the pan and deepens in colour. Turn over to cook on the flesh-side until internal temperature reaches 74C. Rest for 5 minutes before slicing.Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix salsa ingredients together. Taste and adjust seasoning accordingly.
- Tear your @Merchantgourmet Red & White Quinoa pouch and microwave for 2 minutes.
- Serve up your bowl with the Red & White Quinoa, salsa, avocado, chicken and finish with a dollop of sour cream.
