I was speaking to one of my oldest school friends who now lives in New Zealand. Eating my usual usual bowl of Greek Yogurt and fruit for breakfast meanwhile on the other side of the world Helen was serving her family supper. Being the food obsessed girl that I am, I asked Helen what she was serving “Marbella Chicken” ......trying to push the cast from “The Only way is Essex” to the back of my mind 😂 I was intrigued to find out what this might be ...Helen told me what it consisted of and I knew I had to try. So here is my version of “Marbella Chicken “ Enjoy!
