    Chargrilled chicken pieces with corn, green chilli and chive salsa

    Serves: 4
    Cooking Time: 45 mins

    Ingredients

    • 4 chicken drumsticks and 4 chicken thighs
    • a little olive oil
    • 15ml (1 tbsp) finely chopped fresh rosemary
    • salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 x corn on the cobs
    • small handful chopped chives
    • 1 chopped green chilli
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil in a small bowl
    • fresh flat-leaf parsley sprigs, to serve

    Instructions

    1

    Rub chicken drumsticks and chicken thighs with olive oil, rosemary and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    2

    Preheat the oven to 190°C.

    3

    Heat a griddle pan over high heat and chargrill corn on the cobs until the kernels are cooked and charred. Set aside until needed.

    4

    In the same pan, chargrill the chicken pieces until well coloured, about 5 minutes per side, before placing the pieces on a roasting tray and roasting until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes.

    5

    While the chicken cooks, prepare the salsa by combining the kernels from the chargrilled corn, chives, green chilli and 30ml olive oil in a small bowl. Serve the chicken pieces warm, sprinkled with the corn salsa and garnished with fresh flat-leaf parsley sprigs, if desired.
