Ingredients

Chicken

2 tablespoons dark soy sauce

2 tablespoons sesame oil

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons clear honey

Pinch of dried red chili flakes

4 large skinless chicken breast fillets, about 7 ounces each

Salsa

1 red onion, diced

1 small garlic clove, crushed

1 bunch fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Grated rind and juice of 1 lemon

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper

Diced tomato and steamed couscous, or white rice to serve

Directions

Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, olive oil, honey and chili flakes in a shallow dish, add the whole chicken breasts, cover and marinate for as long as possible.

Cook the chicken in a preheated ridged grill pan for 8 minutes on each side, until charred and cooked through. Wrap in foil and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, mix all the salsa ingredients together and season with salt and pepper. Set aside to infuse. Strain the marinade juices into a small saucepan and bring to the boil, then remove from the heat but keep warm.

Serve the chicken with couscous or white rice tossed with diced tomato and top with the salsa and the marinade sauce.
