Method
Make deep cuts into each chicken portion. Brush 1 tbs oil over the chicken and grill for 30 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through.
Meanwhile, boil the sweetcorn in lightly salted water for 15 minutes. Brush with a little extra oil. Grill for 5 minutes, turning occasionally.
To make the Coriander dressing blend together the Chopped Coriander and Chopped Garlic with the remaining oil. Season to taste and spoon into a bowl.
Sprinkle the Piri Piri Seasoning over the cooked chicken, pour over the lemon juice and grill for a further 2 minutes.
Serve the chicken with the sweetcorn and a drizzle of the Coriander dressing. Garnish with grilled lemon wedges.
Makes 4 servings.
If you are using the alternate marinade recipe:
Place the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Score the chicken using a sharp knife, pour over the marinade, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
Cook the chicken pieces on the grill for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with any remaining marinade throughout the cooking.
Serve hot with a mixed salad or fresh vegetables.
