Lemon Garlic Chicken

Lemon Garlic Chicken recipe

The legs and wings were from a yellow sticker Chicken I butchered a while ago and froze. The mysterious nugget things are actually some Courgettes we’d peeled for a previous recipe we had in the fridge and some left over batter we made the day before for Tokneneng (battered Eggs!) Left overs don’t go to waste here…...

Ingredients:-

Chicken legs and wings
Garlic Powder
Zest of a Lemon
Lightly crushed Black Peppercorns
Seasoned self raising Flour (Gluten free for us)
Olive Oil
Salt

Method:-

(1) Marinate the Chicken portions in the Oil, Garlic Powder, Black Peppercorns and Lemon Zest.
(2) Roll in the seasoned Flour to coat all sides.
(3) Fry on all sides until browned and set aside.
(4) Heat a fryer to 170c.
(5) Deep fry in batches and drain. You are looking for 75c or above near the bone if you have a food probe. If not lift from the oil on stab with a skewer, if the juices run clear you’re good.

We served ours in large home made Gluten free Yorkshire puddings with boiled spuds and stir-fried vegetables. Not quite a Sunday roast, but near enough!

Potato Gratin recipe

We were given some ‘End of life’ Potatoes in Garlic Butter so this was the outcome.

Ingredients:-

1 x 350g pack of  Potatoes in Garlic Butter, sliced
Milk
100ml of Chicken Stock
1 Leek, sliced
Salt & Pepper
Grated Mozzarella and Cheddar mixed Cheese
Italian style grated hard Cheese
Mixed Herbs

Method:-

(1) Layer the Potatoes and Leek in an oven proof casserole.
(2) Add the Milk and Stock so that the top layer is covered.
(3) Add the Grated Cheeses.
(4) Season to taste.
(5) Place in a pre-heated oven at 180c for about 45 minutes until the Potatoes have softened.
(6) Add the grated hard Cheese and mixed Herbs and pop back in the oven to brown.

There was actually too much for us to eat as a side dish, so we wuzzed it up the remained in the food processor to make a hearty soup to freeze for another day.
