Lime & Chilli Chicken

  1. 1. Mix 2 tbsp olive oil with 1 tsp each crushed coriander seeds and grated lime zest and 1/2 tsp each paprika and light muscovado sugar.
  2. 2. Put 2 chicken breasts in a baking dish, spoon the marinade over, then squeeze over a little lime juice. Cover and marinate for 30 minutes.
  3. 3. Cut halfway through the middle of the chicken breasts from the side to create a 'stuffing pocket'. Slip 1-2 lime slices in each breast and season. Tuck 6 unpeeled garlic cloves and 2 fresh red chillies around the chicken.
  4. 4. Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). To check if they are done, prod the chicken with your finger - if it's still a bit soft, give it a bit longer.
  5. 5. Serve with salad and salsa.
