    I cooked this whilst working from home (definitely did more cooking and eating than working…) I swapped the chicken for turkey as that was all that was available and charred my lemon. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe

    I cooked this the same day it was posted, so I had to do some tweaks based on what’s available. The chicken meatball and sauce I did as instructed but served them with cucumbers and bulgur instead. Out of this world!

    This is a firm fave and the dish my son usually requests when he comes for dinner. The meatballs are light and moist with such a delicate flavour from the fennel seeds and parmesan. The herby yoghurt gives it a freshness that really lifts the dish to be something that bit different! I usually serve with one of the pouches of mixed grains that are quick to heat instead of quinoa.
