Harissa chicken kebabs with spring fattoush

Fattoush is a rustic Middle Eastern salad made from bread and seasonal veg. It's the perfect partner to spicy kebabs

  • 1 pitta bread , halved
  • 2 skinless chicken breasts , cut in chunks
  • 1 tbsp harissa
  • olive oil
  • ½ lemon , juiced
  • 1 small garlic clove , crushed
  • 1 tsp sumac (optional)
  • 100g radishes , sliced
  • ½ cucumber , peeled, halved, de-seeded and sliced
  • 1 Little Gem lettuce , roughly chopped
  • 2 spring onions , finely sliced
  • handful mint , roughly chopped

    Method

    1. Toast the pitta halves until brown and crisp. Break them into large pieces and put to one side.
    2. Mix the chicken breast chunks with harissa, 2 tsp olive oil and seasoning. Thread them onto pre-soaked bamboo skewers and grill, turning frequently, for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked though.
    3. Meanwhile, whisk 1 tbsp olive oil with the lemon juice, garlic, sumac (if using) and seasoning. Put the remaining ingredients in a bowl and toss through the dressing. Add the bread and mix again. Serve with the chicken skewers.
