Elevate your chargrilled chicken with a gourmet cherry and watermelon salsa.
Ingredients:
  • 250g cherries, pitted and quartered
  • 250.00 ml seedless watermelon, finely chopped
  • 40.00 ml pistachio kernels, roughly chopped
  • 1 French eschalot, finely chopped
  • 1 large lime, juiced and rind shredded
  • 20.00 ml white balsamic vinegar
  • 5.00 gm caster sugar
  • 4 chicken breast fillets
  • 150g snow peas, trimmed, halved lengthways
  • 150g sugar snap peas, trimmed
  • 100g fresh peas, podded
  • 9.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 82.50 ml mint leaves, roughly chopped
Instructions:
  • In a bowl, mix cherries, watermelon, pistachios, eschalot, and lime rind. Cover and refrigerate. In a jug, whisk 2 tablespoons of lime juice with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and sugar. Season with salt and pepper, cover, and refrigerate.
  • Preheat a chargrill pan over medium heat. Cook chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
  • Combine snow peas, sugar snap peas, and fresh peas in a large bowl. Pour boiling water over the peas and let stand for 1-2 minutes until they are bright green and tender.
  • After draining and rinsing under cold water, place back into the bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with mint, salt, and pepper. Toss until thoroughly mixed.
  • Plate the chicken with salsa generously spooned over the top, and accompany it with a fresh pea salad on the side.
