Chicken Taouk Skewers, Side Salad, Baba Gannoush with Pickled Onions, Yoghurt and Mint with Gherkins

This is such an easy and flavorful, low cal, high protein dish- chicken on a stick. I like the sounds of that! And I totally heart this recipe. If you can get the chicken marinating before you go to work you will have little left to do when you get home. All you’ll need to do is grill it up.

Serve with salad and dips Shazeats#MandysWay for dinner and wrap it up in laffah bread for lunch. I always make extra......
