Par boil the potatoes (store in an airtight container in the fridge).
Ingredients
- 4-5 agria potatoes (cut into cubes)
Method
- Add the potatoes to a large pot of salted water and bring to the boil. Par boil for 10-15 minutes until tender.
- Allow to cool completely before transferring into an airtight container in the fridge.
Make the whipped feta (store in an airtight container in the fridge).
Ingredients
- 90g feta
- ⅓ cup greek yoghurt
Method
- Add the yoghurt and feta to a food processor or blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
Make the gremolata (store in a glass jar in the fridge).
Ingredients
- ¼ cup parsley (finely chopped)
- ¼ cup coriander (finely chopped)
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon (juice)
- 1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 clove garlic (crushed)
Method
- Add all of the ingredients to a glass jarl and mix well to combine
Prepare the marinade for the chicken (store in an airtight container in the fridge).
NOTE – we recommend adding the chopped chicken to the marinade the morning of cooking so it can marinate all day.
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lemon (zest)
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp sumac
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
Method
- Add all the ingredients to an airtight container and mix well to combine.
Tips
- If you have an oven tray that is large enough you can cook the potatoes, brussels and chicken on one tray.
- If you’re making the whipped feta in a blender instead of a food processor you may need to add a touch of lemon juice or some olive oil to get it to blend.
Shortcuts
Vegetables
- Swap out the potatoes for sweet potatoes or yams.
- Swap out the brussels for broccoli or broccolini.
Protein
- For a vegetarian option swap out the chicken for 390g (1 tin) of butter beans, cook as you would the chicken, with the same spices at the same time as the brussels. Serve alongside some pan-fried halloumi.
Other
- Swap out the whipped feta for our yoghurt, tahini sauce.

- On a separate tray add the brussels sprouts, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to this tray and pop in the oven after the potatoes have been roasting for 15 minutes.
