Honey & Mustard BBQ Chicken Marinade Recipe

As Bank Holiday Monday approaches it’s a safe bet that many of us will be hoping for sunshine so we can break out the BBQ. But why settle for cooking meat straight from the packet, how about livening it up with sauces and marinades. Today I’m going to share a gorgeous Honey & Mustard Chicken Marinade that was given to me by the good folks at Rachel’s Organics.

What You’ll Need

Large bunch of flat leaf parsley

2 garlic cloves

1tsp ground cumin

1tsp ground coriander

1 red chill, de-seeded

2 tbsp whole grain mustard

2 tbsp clear honey

4 tbsp Rachel’s Greek Style Honey Bio Live Yogurt

Olive oil

1 jointed chicken 1.5kg or 800g of chicken portions

Step 1

To make the marinade place all the ingredients except the yogurt and oil into a food processor and blitz until smooth.  With the motor still running add the yogurt and a swig of olive oil and pulse briefly.

Step 2

Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces and leave to marinade for at least ½ hour or overnight in the fridge.

Step 3

Pre-heat the barbeque or grill on high. Cook one side and then the other until golden. Check the chicken is cooked all the way through and then serve with lemon wedges.

Note. This recipe works very well with either Chicken Drumsticks or pieces threaded onto a kebab stick as we did here.

Strawberry Eton Mess Recipe!

Summer feels like it’s well and truly upon us, there’s flowers and fruit everywhere and a near constant scent of BBQs. There’s also many DIY projects getting underway as the fair conditions encourages us to improve our homes and gardens. This weekend my husband has been very busy completing various items we needed doing. So we decided we both needed a treat (him for working, me for putting up with the associated mess). The recipe I am going to share with you today is definitely a Summer treat. It was given to me by the good people at Rachel’s Organics and uses their yummy yogurt.

What You’ll Need

200g Strawberries

80g Caster sugar or Icing Sugar

4 Meringues, shop bought and crushed

300ml Double Cream, whipped

200g Rachel’s Low Fat Raspberry Bio Live Yogurt

Serves 4-6

Step 1

Wash and remove the stalks from the strawberries and then cut them into quarters. Place them into a large bowl and sprinkle over the sugar. With the back of a fork squash some of the strawberries to release the juices.

Add the crushed meringues, whipped cream and yogurt and gently fold together with a spatula.

Step 3

Spoon into serving dishes or glasses and serve immediately 🙂
