  1. TURN UP THE HEAT

    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Spread out the halved baby potatoes and onion wedges on a roasting tray in a single layer. Coat in oil, the rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes, shifting halfway.

  2. MARINATION STATION

    Pat the chicken strips dry with paper towel. In a bowl, combine the harissa, ½ the yoghurt, and seasoning. Add the chicken and toss until fully coated. Set aside to marinate. Rinse and halve the olives.

  3. O I LIVE FOR OLIVES

    When the roast has 10-15 minutes remaining, give the tray a shift. Add the marinated chicken (along with any remaining marinade) and the halved olives to the tray. Roast for the remaining time until cooked through.

  4. ADD THE FRESHNESS

    Cut the lemon into wedges. Rinse the salad leaves and the oregano. Roughly shred the salad leaves and roughly chop the oregano. Halve the baby tomatoes.

  5. YOU’RE ALMOST DONE

    In a salad bowl, combine the shredded salad leaves, the halved baby tomatoes, the vinegar (to taste), a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine the remaining yoghurt, the juice of 1 lemon wedge, and seasoning.

  6. WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER

    Plate up the tray-bake and dollop over the lemony yoghurt. Side with the fresh salad and sprinkle over the chopped oregano. Serve with a lemon wedge. Dive in, Chef!
