Preparation
Roast the carrots
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Heat the BBQ on high (or pan on medium-high), making sure to oil the grill first.
- Halve the carrots lengthwise (quarter if large).
- On a lined sheet pan, toss with a drizzle of oil, ½ the spices and S&P.
- Roast, flipping halfway, 18 to 22 min., until tender.
Grill the chicken
- Meanwhile, pat the chicken dry; season with the remaining spices and S&P. In a medium bowl, toss with a splash of the vinegar.
- Add the chicken* to the BBQ (or pan) and grill, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, pick the mint leaves off the stems; roughly chop the leaves.
- Thinly slice the scallion crosswise.
Make the slaw
- In a second medium bowl, combine the cabbage, scallion, ½ the mint, the remaining vinegar, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
Plate your dish
- Divide the raita between your plates and spread out in a circular motion.
- Top with the chicken (slice beforehand if desired) and carrots.
- Garnish with the remaining mint.
- Serve the slaw on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
