    New York cart-style chicken and rice

    45 minutes SERVES 4

    "This is my home-cooked version of the famous street-food takeaway. It’s quite a long recipe but really easy to make. On days when you're feeling virtuous, you're welcome to replace the iceberg or Crunchita lettuce with baby spinach leaves, as I've done here. A hot, red sauce is optional but you won't want to skimp on the creamy white sauce.” – Sam Woulidge

    “This is how you get juicy chicken with crispy skin and smoky flavour. Add weight to the spatchcocked chicken with a brick wrapped in foil, and place sliced onions directly into the coals every now and then to create a smoke that flavours the chicken as it cooks.” – Clem Pedro
