Pickle-brined chicken on the braai with ranch dressing

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes, plus 3 hours’ marinating time

Cooking Time 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the marinade, mix:

1 cup buttermilk
3 T olive oil
3 T pickle juice
1 t onion salt
white pepper, to taste
4 - 6 free-range chicken breasts

For the ranch dressing, mix:

1 cup Woolworths double-thick plain yoghurt
1/2 cup good-quality mayonnaise
1 T lemon juice
2 T dill, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 heads Woolworths Crunchita lettuce
1 cucumber, finely chopped
10 green olives, for serving

Method

1. Marinate the chicken for at least 3 hours; overnight is better. Braai over a medium heat until cooked through, turning occasionally, it should take 6 minutes per side.
2. Slice the chicken into chunks and serve with the lettuce, cucumbers, olives and ranch dressing.
