Cooking Steps

Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle.
Finely chop garlic. Slice lemon into wedges.
In a large baking dish, combine sliced leek, basmati rice, chicken-style stock powder, half the garlic and a generous squeeze of lemon juice.
Place chicken drumsticks on top and sprinkle with Mediterranean spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt.
Pour the boiling water over rice, cover tightly with foil and bake for 20 minutes.

Remove from oven, remove foil and bake, uncovered, until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, a further 20-25 minutes.

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

TIP: Add a little extra water if the liquid is absorbed before the rice is done.

TIP: The rice will be slightly crunchy on top, this adds to the texture!

Meanwhile, finely chop cucumber.
Pick mint leaves and thinly slice.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, add remaining garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Microwave in 10 second bursts until fragrant. Add Greek-style yoghurt, cucumber, mint and a good squeeze of lemon juice to garlic oil mixture. Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper.
