Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Pan-fried tomatoes with za'atar, pine nuts and halloumi; Tomato bulgur with charred courgettes

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Great recipe! I might put the chicken under the broiler next time to crisp up the skin!l. The yoghurt was great!

    Sensational. Might use the marinade on chicken thighs for ease next time and see how that turns out. I can’t have lots of garlic but husband can, and he absolutely delighted in the garlic/lemon/yoghurt dip situation.

    This was amazing and a definite repeat

    This was great! I love black lime and the flavour of the rub is delicious, next time I might slash the chicken to get more of the flavour in there. The yogurt is excellent too.
