MEDITERRANEAN ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the Chicken/" title="View all our recipes with Chicken at eCook">Chicken pieces on a roasting tray. Pat dry with a paper towel, coat in oil, ½ of the Mediterranean Rub, ½ of the Lemon zest and seasoning. Add the whole Garlic Clove to the tray. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and crispy and the garlic is soft.
MOREISH Millet
Place a pot over a medium heat. When hot, toast the Millet with the remaining rub 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 starts to dry out, add more water in small increments to continue cooking. On completion, drain if necessary and return to the pot. Fluff up with a fork and toss through a drizzle of oil. Replace the lid and set aside to keep warm until serving.
GREEK IT UP
In a bowl, toss together the quartered Tomatoes, Cucumber chunks, pitted olives, sliced Red Onion, crumbled feta, and ¾ of the chopped oregano. Drizzle over some olive oil and the Balsamic Vinegar, and season. Toss to coat and set aside.
