• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• In a baking dish, add chicken drumsticks, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then bake for 20 minutes.

TIP: The spice blend will char slightly, this adds flavour to the dish!
~~~~~~~~~~ MODULAR STEP ~~~~~~~~~~
• Cut plain tofu into 2cm chunks.
• In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• When the oil is hot, cook tofu, turning occasionally, 4-5 minutes.
• Add barbecue seasoning and cook, turning to coat, until fragrant, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate, drizzle over the honey and cover to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, add coconut milk, the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
• Add basmati rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
• Cook for 15 minutes, then remove pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• When the chicken has 10 minutes cook time remaining, drain sweetcorn.
• In a medium bowl, combine shredded cabbage mix, sweetcorn, baby spinach leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season and set aside.
• To the baking dish with the drumsticks, add the honey and turn chicken to coat.
