316.1

Ingredients:

  • 150g White Meat (Chicken Breast, Turkey Breast, Lean Pork)
  • 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil (7g)
  • 2 teaspoon Moroccan spice blend
  • 30g low-fat Greek yogurt
  • 3g lemon juice
  • 20g salad leaves
  • 30g onions
  • 1 green chili
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 Lime wedges, to serve

Instructions:

  1. Cut 2 shallow slits in the breast, then rub salt all over the chicken.
  2. Combine spice mix, yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat well. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight to marinate.
  3. Preheat a chargrill pan to medium-high and oven to 180°C. (Alternatively, preheat a barbecue with a hood to medium-high.) Remove chicken from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking. Remove chicken from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Drizzle with oil and cook, breast-side down, for 5 minutes or until golden. Turn and cook for a further 5 minutes or until golden. Transfer, breast-side up, to a baking tray and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until juices run clear when the thickest part of the breast is pierced with a skewer. (Alternatively, close the barbecue hood and reduce heat to medium. Cook for 15 minutes.) Rest, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes.
  4. Season grilled chicken with salt and serve with lime, salad leaves, chili, and onions.
