Asian chicken and mango salad

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 1 hour, 15 minutes

Ingredients

1 whole free-range chicken
2 red chillies, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 T ginger, grated
65 ml soya sauce
1 t sesame oil
2 limes, juiced and skins reserved
80 g treacle sugar
2 T honey
65 ml olive oil
400 g flat glass noodles, cooked
6 radishes, thinly sliced
4 spring onions, thinly sliced lengthways
1 large mango, sliced
1 sheet nori, rolled and thinly sliced
Japanese mayonnaise, for serving
fresh coriander, to garnish

For the salad dressing, whisk

2 T fish sauce
65 ml rice vinegar
1 t sesame oil
65 ml olive oil
1 T honey
1 T ginger, grated ginger
2 t sesame seeds, toasted

Method

Portion the rotisserie chicken or, if you are going to cook it yourself, preheat the oven to 180°C.

Place the chicken, breast-side up, on a large roasting tray.

Mix the chilli, garlic, ginger, soya sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, treacle sugar, honey and olive oil in a bowl. Baste the chicken with half of the mixture and stuff with the juiced lime halves.

Roast for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until cooked and tender, basting every 10 minutes with the remaining basting sauce. Portion the chicken.

Place the noodles in the centre of a bowl, scatter over the radish, spring onion, mango and nori.

Pour over the dressing, top with a dollop of Japanese mayonnaise and garnish with coriander. Serve with portions of roast chicken.

Cook's note: The chicken can also be roasted in a kettle braai in a foil tray.
