MIRACLE CABBAGE AND CHICKEN

WARNING: This episode contains instances of making each other laugh like astronauts on a space station where they've run out of oxygen and have no choice but to start pumping in pure happy gas. Unfettered lunacy I tell you!

TO MAKE THIS MIRACLE:

In a medium bowl, whisk together 1tbs each of soy sauce, honey and olive oil.

Add in 4 x skinless boneless chicken thighs

Season with salt and pepper, toss to coat.

Put a rack in the middle of the oven and put the grill up to high

Find that gigantic half a purple or white cabbage that's taking up all the fridge space, and cut it into (roughly) 6 wedges

Arrange the wedges and 350g of trimmed green beans on a baking sheet.

Drizzle over 2-3 tbs olive oil, season with salt and pepper, then space the chicken on the tray next to the cabbage and beans and set under the hot grill for 19 minutes.

The cabbage should have lovely blackened charred bits.

Remove and allow to sit for 5 - 10 mins.

WHILE THIS IS COOKING...

Make the dressing by whisking together in a small bowl or jug:

1/4 cup rice vinegar

2 tbs sesame oil

1 tbs chilli sauce

1 finely grated garlic clove

2 tbs soy sauce

1 tbs honey

taste and season with more salt if needed.

Roughly chop the cooked cabbage and finely shred the chicken

Add it to a big bowl with the cooked beans. Add a few finely slices spring onions and half a cup of chopped parsley. Dress with the dressing, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
