Method

This dish is a summer spectacular, it’s easy to prepare and will go down well at any BBQ or lunchtime meal.

  1. In a glass jar with a lid add the olive oil, honey, mustard, vinegar and a little salt then put on the lid and shake vigorously to create the dressing
  2. Mix together the stock cube, curry powder, chilli powder, mustard powder with a pinch of sea salt and white pepper
  3. Season the chicken pieces with the spice mix
  4. Place the chicken in a vacuum bag and seal. Cook in a preheated water bath at 64 degrees for 1 hour (moist) or 75 degrees for 8 hours (braised)
  5. In a bowl dress all the vegetables and sear in a very hot sauté pan to add some colour
  6. While the veg is still hot, drizzle with the dressing and add the basil leaves then season to taste
  7. Take the chicken from the bag and pat dry. In a hot skillet crisp up the skin and season to taste
  8. To serve, place the salad into a bowl and top with the chicken

Chef’s Tip –

The chicken can be marinated with all things. Use preserved lemon and roasted fennel seeds for a hint of difference.
