This is a great base spice for any white meat. Sandwiches, roast, rice and veg. There are so many options. Change bland to grand with this spice blend today. We like it as a chicken burger so here a recipe for that.

Directions
Lets Prep!
-
Slice your Chicken breast sideways and coat it with the seasoning as a dry rub, you can give it a little spray of oil if you wish just to help the chicken stay moist. Or...
-
In a bowl combine a 3 tbsp of oil and 2 tsp of Spice Pantry South American Blend. Lightly brush and cover them with the combined mixture, making sure you cover both sides.
Let’s cook
Air fryer
-
Place your chicken in the air fryer and cook for 10 minutes at 180°c, then turn and cook for a further 8-10 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked. If you have a meat thermometer, then the internal temperature should be 165°f/ 74°c.
Oven cook
-
Preheat oven to 400°f/ 200°c/ 180°c fan/ gas mark 6
-
Spray the chicken with a little oil if you have used the dry rub option as the oven does tend to dry it out a bit. Cover the top of the chicken in foil and cook on rack or a baking tray, and cook for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and let it cook for a further 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Stove top
-
Cook on a medium/low heat with a splash of oil for 8 minutes, turn and cook the other side for 6-8 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.
-
We always put a lid over the pan as it steams and fries at the same time making the chicken moist and tender.
Enjoy!
-
Serve in a bun, we like using toasted ciabatta rolls but brioche, burger buns or even a crusty white roll will work just fine with fries or wedges. Also, very good sliced up in sandwiches with a dollop of mayonnaise.
Filling suggestions
-
Lettuce, tomato, cucumber, cheese, relish, tomato sauce or mayo (my favourite!). Get creative!
-
Choose your bun. I like ciabatta rolls toasted on the inside. Add a knob of butter to a frying pan, melt and place the cut rolls on the butter and toast for 30 seconds. Lovely! But hamburger rolls, baguette, brioche rolls are all good.
-
Add them all together just how you like it.
-
Chips? Go on. You know it makes sense to have a few on the side.Take a look at our chip seasoning recipe for perfect crispy healthy chips.
Recipe Note
Cook an extra couple of breasts, slice them and add to your favourite bread the next day with butter and mayonnaise. I always do that and it's so much better and less expensive than shop bought chicken slices.
