Paprika and Lemon Chicken with Smoky Hazelnut Romesco, Bulgur Kale, Charred Asparagus and Feta
This meal is on rotation for me at the moment. Marinading the chicken ahead in some paprika, garlic and lemon adds flavour and ensures it is super moist and tender. The smoky romesco sauce made using roasted red peppers and toasted hazelnuts is so moreish. More garlic, lemon, a splash of sherry vinegar and seasoning finishes it off so it’s both sweet, smoky and slightly sharp. Bulgur wheat cooked in chicken stock adds protein and with some steamed kale, some colour and extra goodness. I love any charred veg and asparagus works really well here. Some added parsley, feta and extra hazelnuts add texture, crunch and a wee salty hit.
