Spicy Marinated Chicken Breast

Submitted by LASrecipes

Yoghurt is a great tenderiser for chicken breast, which can be a little tough when cooked without marinating beforehand. Buy organic yoghurt if possible to avoid the traces of growth hormones and antibiotics commonly found in conventional dairy products.

Directions

Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl.

Add the chicken and leave in for the fridge for at least 4 hours or over night.

To cook the chicken, heat a large pan (for best results use grill pan or Happycall pan) until hot and add coconut oil.

Cook on both sides for a few minutes, until golden brown.

Do not turn chicken too often, as this can make it tough.

Serve with salad or grilled vegetables and a side order of grains - quinoa would be a perfect accompaniament.

Other Notes: The chicken is delicious added to a salad for lunch the next day.
