Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • In a baking dish, combine chicken drumsticks, Peri-Peri seasoning, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes. • Remove from oven, turn drumsticks and spoon over any juices. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, a further 15-20 minutes. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside TIP: The spice blend will char slightly, this adds flavour to the dish!
• Meanwhile, drain sweetcorn. Cut potato into fries.• Cut bacon into 1cm pieces. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook bacon until golden, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. • In a medium bowl, combine green butter lettuce, corn and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinke with diced bacon and set aside.
• Place potato fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake until just tender, 20-25 minutes. • When the fries have 5 minutes remaining, remove tray from oven, sprinkle fries with Cheddar cheese and bake until melted. • When the chicken is done, add chilli jam to the baking dish and turn chicken to coat. TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.
• Divide Portuguese chicken drumsticks, cheesy Kiwi-spiced loaded fries and salad between plates. • Spoon remaining peri peri sauce from baking dish over drumsticks. • Serve with a dollop of mayonnaise. Enjoy!
