Harissa Chicken
Cut the chicken in to bite size pieces
In a bowl put all the ingredients for the chicken
(Or turkey as both work well as does Quorn if you are vegetarian)
Mix all the ingredients together and add the meat
Leave over night if you can but 1 hour or so will surfice if in a rush.
Put on to skewers then griddle for roughly 20 minutes
Make sure there cooked properly by cutting in to them or pop in oven to make sure
Keep hot but let them rest from the grill, to let the meat relax and absorb the flavours
Then enjoy of the skewer it’s self or pop in flat breads and enjoy as a rap with crispy lettuce or coleslaw and hummus and cucumber and salads
Flat Breads
Mix all the flatbread ingredients in a bowl and mix together using your hand
Tip out the dough on to a floured surface
Knead for a minute or so, Note: this is not a bread flour recipe where you stretch and pull it, to develop the gluten and it has no yeast, so doesn’t need he same amount of Kneading.
Dusted the bowl with flour and cover, whilst you make the Green Harissa Paste and Garlic Herby butter.
Split dough in to equal pieces (6 for medium sized breads or 8 for smaller ones)
Flatten the dough, then with rolling pin roll each piece into rounds, 2mm to 3mm thick.
Cut some lines into the centre of each round, but not right to the edge
Using a griddle pan on a high heat, cook each bread for 1 to 2 minutes on each side,
Brush the flat breads all over with butter whilst they are still hot.
Green Harissa Paste and Garlic Herby butter
Chop up herbs finely, and crush the garlic.
