Ingredients

700g pack Asda Chicken Breast Fillets

2 lemons, juice only

2 garlic cloves, crushed

2tbsp low-fat natural yoghurt

1tsp ground cumin

1tsp paprika

1tsp ground coriander

1tsp cayenne pepper

½ red cabbage, finely shredded

1 carrot, cut into matchsticks

1 lemon, juice only?For the dressing

125g low-fat natural yoghurt

1 garlic clove, crushed

1 tbsp honey

Method

1
Put the chicken breasts into a zip-lock food bag. Bash with a rolling pin to slightly flatten them. Add the remaining chicken ingredients to the bag, seal, then place in the fridge for 1–2 hours or ideally overnight to marinate.
2
Remove the chicken from the fridge 20 mins before cooking.
3
Prepare the slaw by adding the red cabbage and carrot to a large bowl and tossing together with the lemon juice, a pinch of salt and black pepper.
4
Combine all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
5
To cook the chicken, place a griddle pan over a medium-high heat, then fry the chicken for 4–5 mins each side until cooked through. Fry the chicken in batches, or you can cook under the grill. Once cooked, transfer to a plate and set aside for 5 mins to rest.
6
Chop the chicken into strips before serving. Pile up plates with the slaw, chicken, some dressing and finish with fresh coriander, if liked.
