Method
Chicken
- In a bowl, mix the oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, honey and mustard.

- Heat the grill or braai to a medium heat.
- Cook the chicken pieces skin-side down for 5 minutes; then turn over. Continue for about 20 minutes, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Baste occasionally during cooking.
Potato salad
- Place the potatoes into a pot, cover with water and add a generous pinch of salt.
- Place it on the stovetop and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer, and allow to cook until al dente. Strain.
- Once cool, add the pickles, mayonnaise and salt & pepper to taste.
- Gently toss to coat evenly.
- Serve the chicken with the creamy potato salad on the side.
