Ingredients

  • 2 nectarines, stoned and quartered
  • 6 skinless chicken thigh fillets, halved
  • 2 Florida Grapefruit, cut into thick slices and quartered
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 100g feta cheese
  • 100g ricotta cheese
  • 1 tbsp Florida Grapefruit juice, plus an extra squeeze
  • 2 tbsp fresh mint leaves
  • 8 mini or 4 regular pitta breads, warmed
  • 1 tbsp black onion (nigella) seeds

Step by step

  1. Soak 4 bamboo skewers in water for at least 20 minutes.

  2. Push a nectarine quarter on to each skewer, then add the chicken and Florida Grapefruit alternately. Finish each with another nectarine quarter to secure the ingredients.

  3. Season the kebabs with olive oil, salt, pepper and fresh rosemary.  Place the chicken under a pre-heated grill and cook for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the Florida Grapefruit is caramelised. 
     
  4. Meanwhile, whip together the feta, ricotta, Florida Grapefruit juice and half of the mint in a food processor until smooth.

  5. Spread the whipped feta onto the pitta breads and scatter with the remaining mint and the black onion seeds.

  6. When the chicken is cooked, remove from the grill and place on top of the pitta breads.

  7. Serve with an extra squeeze of Florida Grapefruit and enjoy.
