GREEN GODDESS CHICKEN

Steps:

• Begin by making the green goddess marinade. Combine the ingredients in your blender and blend on high until smooth. (see notes)
• Place the chicken thighs in a medium-sized bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing then pour the rest over the chicken. Toss to coat then cover the bowl and put it into your fridge. Let the chicken marinate for 1-4 hours.
• Heat a large, non-stick or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil then add the chicken. Discard any marinade that remains in the bowl.
• Cook the chicken for 6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and serve with the reserved marinade drizzled over the top.

GREEN GODDESS CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• For the dressing: Place the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, milk, spinach, basil, parsley, garlic and lemon zest in a blender with a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Set aside.
• For the salad: Add the chicken, grapes, walnuts, scallions and cucumber to a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the basil and parsley. Serve on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich or wrap, or cover and chill until needed.

GREEN GODDESS CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Put the avocado, oil, lime zest and juice, jalapeño, basil, half the cucumber and 1 tbsp water in a blender and blitz until smooth. Season to taste, then set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
• Cook the eggs in a pan of boiling water for 7 mins, then rinse under cold running water to cool. Drain, peel and halve, then set aside.
• Toss the lettuce quarters with the sundried tomatoes, cooked chicken, the spring onions and remaining cucumber. Spread the cooked quinoa over the base of a serving plate, then top with the chicken salad, eggs and the dressing. Scatter over the pistachios and serve.

GREEN GODDESS ROASTED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a blender, purée buttermilk, basil, chives, garlic, anchovies (if using), scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth.
• Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight.
• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking off as much liquid as possible, and lay the halves on a rimmed baking sheet. (Discard the used marinade.) Pat chicken tops dry with paper towels and drizzle with oil. Roast until cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving, with some of the reserved sauce if you like.
