CHICKEN RISSOLES WITH LENTIL SALAD

Chicken Rissoles With Lentil Salad image

This is based on a recipe from the January 2009 issue of "recipes +" magazine. The original recipe called for ground pork, but we changed it to chicken. This makes a perfect mid-week meal, and is quick and easy to make. You can add sices such as cumin or coriander to the ground chicken, to spice it up a bit. Also, try serving it with flour tortillas or flatbread! With the salad, you can save money by using 1 medium tomato instead of the cherry tomatoes. Also, if you can't get a can of lentils, use 1 cup of dried lentils, soaked and prepared.
