  1. CHICKEN

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, the soy sauce, and seasoning. Roast in the oven until cooked through and crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. JERK TIME!

    Rinse the sweet potato and cut into 1cm thick fries. Place on a separate roasting tray. Coat in oil, the Jerk seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Roast until cooked through and crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  3. SLAW

    While the chicken and chips are roasting, rinse and finely slice the chives. Finely slice ½ the cabbage. In a bowl, combine the sliced cabbage, the yoghurt, ½ the sliced chives, and seasoning. Set aside until serving.

  4. PINEAPPLE OF YOUR EYE

    When the roast has 5-10 minutes remaining, place a pan or grill over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the pineapple rings until lightly charred, 1-2 minutes per side.

  5. WELCOME TO PARADISE

    Plate up the fries. Side with the chicken, the charred pineapple, and the creamy slaw. Serve the Jerk dip on the side for dunking. Garnish with the remaining chives. Well done, Chef!
