Tips/Tricks
- I cooked this chicken on my bbq using indirect heat but you can cook it in the oven using same method OR fry it in a pan on high heat for 4 minutes and then flip so it is skin side up and cook in oven for 20 minutes @ 180c
- charring the spring onions and/or jalapeno will add extra flavour to the dish if you are using your bbq
- the salad works great with pork, beef and salmon too so a great recipe to have up your sleeve
