Recipe type: Main
Cuisine: Australian
Serves: 4
Ingredients
4 chicken ½ breasts
Marinade
2 cloves garlic, crushed or finely chopped
1 tablespoon whole cumin seeds, toasted
¼ teaspoon salt
Grated zest of two limes
Juice of one lime
1½ tablespoons olive oil
Mango Salsa
2 Mangoes, sliced
1 long red chilli, thinly sliced (it's just fine without the chilli)
1 cup small basil leaves (or larger ones chopped)
1 cup small mint leaves (or larger ones chopped)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200C/400F
Marinade
Using a mortar and pestle, pound the garlic, cumin seeds and salt until a coarse paste forms.
Add lime zest and juice and oil and stir to combine.
Chicken
Smear marinade all over the chicken
In a hot frying pan or grill pan cook the chicken presentation side down first until slightly charred.
Turn over and brown on the other side - just another minute.
Place the frying pan in the oven (or transfer to a baking pan like I did) and roast for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. Don't overcook chicken - it's tough and disgusting.
Mango Salsa
Combine the mango, chilli, basil and mint.
Assembly
Rest chicken for 5-7 minutes and slice and transfer to a serving dish and drizzle over pan juices.
Serve with the salsa.
