Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Cut potato into fries. • Place fries on a lined oven tray. Sprinkle with dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. • Toss to coat, then bake until tender, 25-30 minutes.
• While the fries are baking, in a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning, a pinch of salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh and toss to coat.
• Thinly slice red onion (see ingredients). • In a small bowl, combine the white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt. • Scrunch sliced onion in your hands, then add it to pickling liquid. Add enough water to just cover onion. Set aside.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken thigh and cook until browned, 2 minutes on each side. Remove from heat, add the honey to the pan and toss to coat. • Transfer chicken to a second lined oven tray and bake until cooked through, 8-12 minutes.
TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour! TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is cooking, finely chop cucumber and tomato. • Drain pickled onion. • In a second medium bowl, combine cucumber, tomato, pickled onion, mixed salad leaves and a drizzle of olive oil. Season to taste.
• Slice the garlic and herb charred chicken. • Divide the chicken, oregano fries and salad between plates. • Crumble fetta cubes over salad. Top with a dollop of mayonnaise to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Sept 2026- Flavour: The chicken was well-seasoned and juicy, and the pickled onion and feta salad were widely enjoyed. Some found the oregano on the chips and the garlic-herb seasoning overpowering — halving the seasoning quantity worked well for those who prefer a lighter flavour.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and easy weeknight meal, with the steps coming together smoothly. One reviewer successfully cooked the chicken entirely in the pan without the oven step.
- Suggestions: Some preferred chicken breast or tenderloins over thigh; those who did use thigh found it juicy and easy to cook. A few reviewers swapped white wine vinegar for apple cider vinegar in the pickled onion with good results, and one added lemon juice to the chips for extra brightness. Cooking the chips in an air fryer was also noted as a great option.
- Portions: Several reviewers felt there was not quite enough chicken, particularly for four people, and a few added extra salad leaves to bulk out the meal.
- Leftovers: At least one reviewer used the leftover salad components for lunch the next day.
