  1. ROAST MOMENT

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the corn on the cob on a baking tray. Coat in oil, and season. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel and place in a bowl. Add ½ the yoghurt and the spice blend. Mix until fully coated. Place the coated chicken, along with all the yoghurt, on the baking tray with the corn. Roast in the hot oven for 10-15 minutes until cooked through and golden, shifting halfway. On completion, set the chicken aside to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season the slices.

  2. OPTIONAL: TOAST THE SEEDS

    Place the sunflower seeds in a pot over medium high heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pot on completion and set aside to cool.

  3. CHIMMI Millet

    Return the pot to a medium heat. When hot, toast the Millet for 1-3 minutes, shifting occasionally. Pour in 150ml of salted water and cover with a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and gently simmer for 10-12 minutes until the water has been absorbed and the millet is cooked. If it dries out, add more water in small increments to continue cooking. On completion, drain if necessary and return to the pot. Toss through the chimichurri (to taste) and seasoning.

  4. PREP STEP

    While the Millet is simmering, drain and roughly chop the jalapeño. Rinse the coriander. Roughly chop the tomato and the rinsed coriander. In a bowl, combine the chopped tomato, the chopped jalapeño (to taste), ½ the chopped coriander, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning.

  5. DIG IN!

    Make a bed of the chimichurri Millet. Top with the Chicken slices and dollop over the remaining yoghurt. Side with the corn on the cob and the jalapeño salsa. Sprinkle over the sunflower seeds and the remaining coriander. Time to dine!
