Method

  1. Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 12-15 minutes until just tender. Drain well and quarter each potato. Put into a large bowl.
  2. Whisk together the lemon juice, 4 tablespoons oil, the mint, chillies and seasoning. Pour over the potatoes, then cool. Add the onions and put into a large Tupperware box.
  3. Mix the remaining oil with the paprika. Put into a small Tupperware box, add the chicken and mix well. Put both boxes into a cool box.
  4. At the beach, or at home, light the barbecue, following the manufacturer’s instructions. Barbecue the chicken for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway, until tender. Toss the chicken with the potato salad and serve.
