80g Co-op Feta, crumbled

Method
Cook the sweet potato and sweetcorn cobettes in boiling water for 6-8 mins, until just tenderDrain 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
