Method

  • step 1

    Mix the oil, oregano, paprika, lemon juice and garlic in a bowl with some black pepper and a pinch of salt, then add the chicken and toss well. Thread the chicken onto four metal skewers and set aside. For the salad, mix the onions and lemon juice in a bowl and set aside.

  • step 2

    To make the hummus, boil the broad beans in 300ml water for 5 mins, then scoop out of the pan, reserving the water. Tip the beans into a bowl with the rest of the ingredients, and blitz using a hand blender with up to 150ml of the cooking water until smooth.

  • step 3

    Heat the grill to high and cook the chicken skewers for 4-5 mins on each side, or until cooked through. Meanwhile, finish preparing the salad. Toss the tomatoes and sliced cucumber with the lemon-soaked onions. Serve halve the hummus with two skewers of chicken and half the salad. The remainder will keep in the fridge for up to two days.

question

When you say heat the grill, do you mean a griddle pan on the oven stoves top or the grill for example your top oven where the gas it above it - like you would do cheese on toast? I’m always confused and a little daft!

Hi, thanks for your question. In this recipe it's the grill at the top of the oven (as for cheese on toast). Usually in the UK we use grill for that and would specify griddle pan if it was otherwise, however recipes from other countries, especially American recipes, often use grill and griddle…

The quantity is wrong, it states for 4 people but you only make 4 skewers and are meant to serve 2 skewers per portion.

This was delicious but made far too much hummus- next time I’ll reduce the beans to 350g but keep the same quantity of spices and liquid. We have loads left despite valiant efforts to eat it all. Served with extra crudités and pitta.
