Method
- Cook the sweet potato and sweetcorn cobettes in boiling water for 6-8 mins, until just tender
- Drain and set aside
- To make the chimichurri sauce, blitz the herbs, garlic, chilli, half the lime juice and zest, 2 tbsp of the oil and 4 tbsp water, then season
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop everything finely by hand
- Heat 2 tbsp of the sauce in a pan, stir in the rice and pour over 350ml boiling water
- Cover and cook gently for 12 mins
- When the rice is cooked, remove from the heat but keep the pan covered
- Meanwhile, heat the grill
- Toss the sweet potato and sweetcorn with the mixed peppers in the remaining oil, then thread onto the skewers, finishing with a sweetcorn cobette on the end
- Grill the kebabs for 10-15 mins, turning regularly
- Stir the remaining lime zest and juice into the rice, then tip onto a platter
- Top with the veggie skewers, the Feta, the rest of the chimichurri sauce, and the lime quarters
