Barbequed Lime & Chilli Chicken Skewers

Barbequed Snapper with Pineapple Salad
Snapper is such a lovely fish, especially if you've been lucky enough to catch it yourself and eat it fresh within hours of the catch. This recipe also works well with any other firm white- fleshed fish or, I love using a whole fish. Treat the preparation the same as for the fillets below, but coat the entire snapper in cornflour and allow just a little more time for cooking.

Crispy Greek Lemon Chicken with Roasted Beetroot
This recipe epitomizes how a great roast chicken should taste. It's crisp and golden on the outside, and moist, tender and flavoursome on the inside. Once you've cooked it this way, I defy you to ever roast a chicken any other way! These words were echoed to me by Karen Martini on a Better Homes & Gardens TV shoot - and yes, Karen I agree, there is no better way to roast chicken!
