  1. GET YOUR CHAR ON

    Place a griddle pan or pan (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the baby marrow strips and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until charred and cooked al dente. Remove from the pan and cut into bite-sized chunks.

  2. SALSA ON THE SIDE

    Peel and grate the garlic. Drain the olives and the capers. Halve ½ the drained olives. Roughly chop the drained capers and remaining olives. Place the chopped capers and the chopped olives in a bowl. Add a ¼ of the lemon juice, the grated garlic (to taste), a drizzle of oil, and a pinch of pepper. Mix until combined.

  3. CRISPY CHICKY

    Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towel. When the pan is hot, fry the chicken, skin-side down, for 5-7 minutes until crispy and golden. Flip, pop on the lid, and fry for 5-7 minutes until cooked through. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the chicken with a knob of butter. Remove from the heat and rest in the pan for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly season.

  4. PREP IN YOUR STEP

    While the chicken is cooking, drain the chickpeas and the feta. Rinse the drained chickpeas and the parsley. Roughly chop the parsley. Roughly dice ½ of the green pepper. Roughly dice the cucumber and ¼ of the onion.

  5. SCRUMPTIOUS SALAD

    In a salad bowl, combine the rinsed chickpeas, the diced cucumber, the diced onion (to taste), the diced green pepper, the halved olives, the charred baby marrow chunks, ½ the chopped parsley, the remaining lemon juice (to taste), a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Toss to combine.

  6. BIG FAT GREEK FEAST
