• Cook kūmara in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes.

• Meanwhile, roughly chop baby leaves. In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage mix, baby leaves, garlic aioli and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
• Cut chicken thigh into 2cm strips. In a medium bowl, combine All-American spice blend, the plain flour and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken strips and toss to coat.
• Re-boil the kettle. 

Cook the chicken
3

• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to cover the base. 
• Cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. 

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.

Finish & serve

• Serve with BBQ gravy. Enjoy!

  • Ease of prep: Simple to make and a hit with families, including kids.
  • Suggestions: Consider serving the gravy on the side; some found the meal didn't need it for moisture or flavour.
  • Portions: Several reviewers mentioned the portion size was too small, particularly for the chicken and kumara.
