Greek Style Grilled Chicken with Coleslaw

Warmer weather is finally here and lighter meals are on the menu in our house.  I love coleslaw and this home made version is easy to prepare and much better for you than the store bought version.  Enjoy 🙂

To make the coleslaw I thinly shred some red cabbage, green cabbage, carrot, apple. celery, spring onion and a red onion in the food processor.  In a separate bowl whisk together 4 tablespoons of sour cream and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard.  Spoon the sour cream mixture over your vegetables and fold until evenly coated.  Cover and allow to stand in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.

Greek Style Chicken

• 4 organic free range Chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup extra virgin Olive Oil
• juice of 1 lemon (1/4 cup)
• 2 teaspoons minced Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Sweet Paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon ground Black Pepper

Thin out the chicken breasts by slicing them in half.  In a large bowl combine the marinade ingredients.  Add the chicken and toss with your hands until the chicken is evenly coated.  Allow to marinate for 15-30 minutes (the longer the better – if I am organised I tend to prepare them in the morning).  Grill chicken breasts on each side for 6-8 minutes until cooked.  Serve with your fresh coleslaw.  If you like your chicken spicy add some chilli powder to your marinade.
