Method

  1. Place all the ingredients apart from the chicken into a food blender and whizz. Pour over the chicken and leave to marinate for a few hours or better still overnight.

  2. Take the chicken out of the fridge an hour before cooking. Place the chicken in a roasting tray sat on a rack and pop it into a preheated oven set at 220°, roast for 30 minutes or till cooked through. Alternatively, you can pop it under a hot grill. Once out of the oven, leave it to rest for 5 minutes while you warm up some flatbreads and get your salad and condiments ready. Cut the chicken into slices and pile it high on a flatbread, enjoy!
