Ingredients

  • 2 Skinless boneless chicken breasts
  • 120g Fat free Greek style yoghurt
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Coriander [Finely chopped]
  • 2 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 Garlic Clove [Crushed]
  • ½ tsp Cayenne Pepper
  • ½ tsp Paprika
  • ½ tsp Ground Cumin
  • Pinch Salt

Instructions

  • Marinating: Pop the chicken breasts into a strong freezer bag, grab a rolling pin and tenderise the meat basically by whacking the heck out of it! Don't be scared of being too rough, the more you tenderise the more tender your chicken will be.
  • Set the chicken aside as it's time to make the marinade.
  • Pop all of the marinade ingredients (basically everything other than the chicken) into a bowl and mix together well.
  • Pour this marinade into the bag with the chicken. This is why we need a strong bag. If you have some holes after tenderising the chicken it would be worth getting a new bag.
  • Seal the bag, make sure the chicken is completely covered and place into the fridge. The chicken needs at least 2 hours but the longer the better. If you can leave it overnight I would recommend.
  • After Marinating: Now we are ready to cook the chicken. Preheat the oven to gas mark 6/200c/180c Fan.
  • Pop the chicken breasts and all of the marinade into a non stick pan.
  • Cover loosely with foil and pop into the oven for 20 - 25 minutes. Check the chicken is cooked through before serving.
