Description

Want a sneak peek at what’s on Chef Zola Nene’s Xtra Special Easter Table? Dinner is this succulent Ribcanha and Prawns with Plum and Herb Salsa. Packing a flavour punch and plated like a centrepiece, this ‘surf and turf’ is sure to wow your dinner guests.

Our exclusive Steakhouse Classic Ribcanha Roast is perfectly matured and thick cut. No wonder it’s a South African favourite. Ask your butcher to prepare the perfect cut for you in-store. Zola’s top cooking tip is to brown it fat side down first.

Add some Xtra wow by smothering your roast in our Forage and Feast Apricot Chimichurri Braai Sauce before roasting. It’s a perfectly balanced combination of tangy apricots, sweet fruity nectar, rice vinegar and a bite of chimichurri.

As for the prawns, choose Cape Point Whole King Prawns for Xtra flavour. Then all that’s left to do is to sprinkle your steak and seafood with Zola’s salsa drizzled in Forage and Feast Mediterranean Dressing.

Celebrate Easter with all the Xtras and try this Ribcanha and Prawns with Plum and Herb Salsa for dinner. You’ll find all the ingredients only at Checkers, and on Sixty60 for delivery to your door in 60 minutes.
