Turkish Spiced Chicken with Tracklements Sriracha Relish

Method:

Make a marinade by mixing the olive oil, cinnamon, cayenne, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper together in a large bowl.

Make little slits all over the undersides of the chicken with the point of a knife. Put the chicken in the marinade, turning to coat. Cover with cling film and put in the fridge. Leave in the fridge for a couple of hours, or overnight. Bring to room temperature before cooking.

Next make the relish:  combine the garlic and sea salt in a mixer. Add the coriander, mint and olives and pulse until mixed. Gradually add the extra virgin olive oil, sriracha and balsamic vinegar until you have a rough paste.  Add lemon juice to taste and set aside.

Next heat a griddle pan over a medium heat. Shake the excess marinade from the chicken and fry in the pan for about 2 minutes on each side. Reduce the heat to low and cook for another 4 minutes, or until cooked through.
