Lemon and Honey Chicken
- 6 -8 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1kg/2lb 4oz in total)
- 2 tablespoons clear honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 curly lettuce
- Preheat the oven to 190C/gas 5/fan 170.
- Arrange the chicken in a shallow ovenproof dish.
- Mix together the honey, lemon zest and juice, oil, salt and pepper, then pour over the chicken breasts and turn them around until well coated.
- Roast the chicken breasts for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time, and basting occasionally, until they are golden brown and shiny and the marinade has almost evaporated.
- Leave to cool, then wrap in foil and chill until ready to eat.
- (The chicken may now be frozen for up to 1 month.
- Defrost before serving.)
- On the day, spread the lettuce over a large platter, tearing up any large leaves.
- Slice the chicken breasts, keeping them together, then arrange over the lettuce.
