ENOUGH FOR 4

1 bunch baby carrots

1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar (caramelised even better)

1 Tbsp soy sauce

2 Tbsp EVO oil

4 handfuls mixed salad leaves

100g fresh goats cheese (or cottage)

1. Heat BBQ.

2. Meanwhile trim and discard carrot tops. Halve carrots lengthwise.

3. Rub with a little oil.

4. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes or until carrots are a little burned and charred in places.

5. Meanwhile, combine balsamic, soy and 2-3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.

6. Turn the carrots and cook for another minute or until cooked to your liking.

7. Scatter leaves over a serving platter. Top with hot carrots, drizzle with dressing and finish with little chunks of the cheese

Chipotle chicken

400g chicken breast, diced

1 red onion, diced

1/2 tsp cumin

400g tin tomato

Pinch brown sugar

1 Tbsp chipotle in adobe

Salt

Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and quickly fry your chicken pieces until they turn golden. Set aside.

In the same pan, add another small splash of olive oil and fry your onion until it softens.

Add your tomatoes, cumin, sugar and chipotle and simmer for around 15 - 25 minutes until the tomato sauce starts to thicken around the edges of the pan.

Add the chicken back into the sauce and allow to cook for about 5 minutes.

Give the chicken a good spritz of lime juice. This freshens things up and amplifies the flavours.
