Instructions

Start your Prep
1

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.

b) Trim the aubergine, cut into 2cm pieces then pop onto a large baking tray.

c) Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over the chermoula spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder), season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. 

Roast the Veg
2

a) Pop the tomatoes onto a piece of foil with a drizzle of oil. Season with salt and pepper.

b) Fold the foil, sealing on all sides to create a parcel. Place the tomato parcel onto the aubergine tray.

c) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and golden, 17-18 mins. Turn the aubergine halfway through.

Crouton and Chicken Time
3

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the diced chicken to the pan. Fry until cooked through, 8-10 mins. Cover and set aside for now. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.

c) Tear the ciabatta into roughly 2cm chunks and pop onto another baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. 

d) Bake on the middle shelf of the oven until golden, 6-8 mins. Once golden, remove from the oven and set aside.

e) While the croutons bake, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Drain and rinse the lentils in a sieve.

Bring on the Lentils
4

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan on medium heat.

b) Once hot, add the garlic and stir-fry for 30 secs.

c) Add the lentils to the pan and stir together until piping hot, 1-2 mins. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat.

Assemble your Salad
5

a) In a large bowl, combine the balsamic glaze, sun-dried tomato paste, sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper. 

b) When ready, add the lentils, roasted aubergine and tomatoes to the dressing and toss to coat.

c) Allow to sit for 1 min to absorb the flavours.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Just before serving, mix the baby leaves and croutons into your salad, then share between your bowls. 

b) Top with the cooked chicken, crumble the Greek style salad cheese over and drizzle on the yoghurt.

Enjoy!
