Minty, zesty chicken

This chicken marinade yields a very fresh and tasty meal. The use of fresh mint really separates it from other marinades and is a perfect balance with the lemon. Try this delicious chicken marinade and I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Ingredients:

  • 500g/ 1lb chicken breasts
  • 6 spring onions
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of pepper
  • 1 handful of fresh mint
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • Handful of fresh coriander
  • Olive oil to taste

Method:

  1. Cut the chicken into 2.5cm/ 1 inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Put all of the remaining ingredients except for the olive oil into a food processor and blend.
  3. Once the ingredients have been processed into a paste, add the olive oil to achieve your desired consistency.
  4. Mix the chicken marinade paste with the chicken cubes in the bowl then cover and leave to marinate for 1 – 4 hours (the longer the better).
