This recipe is perfect for making ahead for a casual dinner party, weekend meal prep, or a weeknight dinner. The marinated chicken can be frozen so you can stock up your freezer.
Ingredients:
- 4 large chicken breasts
- ½ cup yogurt (I like Greek)
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 ½ lemons, zested and juiced
- 1 ½ tbsp Sumac
- ¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp tomato paste

- Salt and pepper
- Aleppo pepper and Oomame Moroccan chili crunch
- Pickled Cabbage*
- ½ head of red cabbage
- ½ cup white vinegar
- 1 sachet of Pearl & Johnny Fire & Spice Pickle Kit
Method:
1. Whisk all ingredients together and marinade chicken for a minimum of 1 hour up to overnight.
2. Remove chicken from marinade. Grill in a non-stick pan until crispy and brown on both sides. Finish in a 400-degree oven until cooked through.
3. Sprinkle with Aleppo pepper, chili crunch on top of the chicken and pickled cabbage to serve.
- * PICKLED CABBAGE:
1. Fill a clean Mason jar with thinly sliced red cabbage. In a pot, bring ¾ cups water and ½ cup white vinegar to a boil.
