Spiced Chicken with Chickpea & Cucumber Salad

by Irene Lindvall


Day three of using the BBQ! We barely got this one in as it starting sprinkling towards the end. While we didn't run into any rain, we did have some issues with how long the chicken needed to cook even though these were relatively small thighs. I thought the taste was still pretty good and I really liked the burnt sesame seeds. The salad was an extremely light and delicious compliment to the chicken. Shallots must be in season now because I am able to find them all over (or I wasn't looking hard enough before?) and were just the right strength of onion for the salad.

Things I learned from this recipe:

We really need to take the "Grilling with Chicken" class from Sur La Table.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Sure
