Cooking Steps

1

• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Cook 1/2 the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add the basmati rice, and the water, stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the 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!

2

• While the rice is cooking, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook remaining garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Transfer garlic oil to a small bowl, then add Greek-style yoghurt and stir to combine. Season to taste.

3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Add herby marinated chicken thigh and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 14-16 minutes.

4

• While the chicken is cooking, finely chop tomato and cucumber.

5

• In a second medium bowl, combine a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil with a pinch of salt and pepper. • Add cucumber and tomato and stir to combine.

6

• Slice herby chicken. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with chicken and cucumber salsa. • Drizzle over garlic yoghurt and tear over parsley to serve. Enjoy!
