COOK’S TIP

For a quick dessert, blend the remaining raspberries with a little icing sugar and lemon juice. Serve over vanilla ice cream and top with toasted flaked almonds.

INGREDIENTS

2 x 305g packs Southern Fried Breaded Chicken Mini Fillets 4 burger buns, split open 2 tbsp Greek strained yogurt 2 limes, juice ½ large pointed spring cabbage, shredded (about 175g prepared weight) 2 tbsp clear honey ½ tsp hot smoked paprika 150g No.1 Speciality Raspberries Sliced gherkins or pickled cucumbers, to serve

Preparation time: 15 minutes Cooking time: 20 minutes Total time: 35 minutes Serves: 4

METHOD

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6. Cook the chicken according to pack instructions. Add the burger buns to the oven for the last 2 minutes of cooking. 2. Meanwhile, mix the yogurt and juice of 1 lime in a mixing bowl and toss through the cabbage and a pinch of salt; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the honey, paprika and juice of the remaining lime. Add the raspberries and gently crush with the back of a fork. Stir together and set aside. 3. When the chicken and buns are cooked, arrange the bottom halves of the buns on a board. Spoon over most of the raspberryhoney sauce, then scatter over some of the sliced gherkins or pickled cucumbers. Arrange the chicken on top, then pile on the cabbage. Top with the burger lids and serve immediately with any remaining raspberry-honey sauce on the side.

Bell’s in KIngsthorpe will be transformed into an outdoor cooking showroom as part of Grillfest – a one-day event staged by the award-winning Burnt Lemon Chefs – giving fans of flame-grilling the chance to pick up some new tips to put into practice themselves.

The festival, which takes place from 10am to 9pm on Sunday, June 26, will feature delicious food, live music, competitions and interactive demos from leading butchers, grillmasters and top BBQ brands.

James Peck, owner of Burnt Lemon Chefs, said: “We know how much people love a BBQ and Grillfest mirrors our ethos of outdoor cooking - it’s all about having fun and maximising the flavour of quality ingredients.

“It’s perfect for anyone that considers themselves a bit of a BBQ King and wants to level up their grilling game ahead of the summer so they can throw the perfect party for family and friends.”

The line-up includes live music from Whiteroom who will be performing songs from the likes of The Killers, Stereophonics, Kings of Leon and others.

Guests will be able to sample the food created in the demos, with the ticket price including tokens to use at the Burnt Lemon Chefs’ stand and at a pop-up bar serving a range of drinks and cocktails.

Cakes and coffee will be available from Bell’s own ‘Love Lunch’ café, while a mini market will feature products from a number of local artisan businesses and producers.
