Ingredients (serves 4)

  • FOR THE CHICKEN
  • 1 Chicken breast per person, cut in half length ways
  • 1 large Lime, juiced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, crushed
  • 1 TBS Olive Oil
  • FOR THE SALSA
  • 1 large or 2 small Mangoes, peeled & chopped into small cubes
  • 12 Cherry tomatoes, chopped into small cubes
  • 1/4 red onion, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup Red capsicum, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup Green capsicum, finely diced
  • 1/4 cup Chopped coriander

  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • FOR THE RICE
  • 3 cups Water
  • 3 cups Jasmine rice, rinsed well until the water runs clear

Method

  1. Marinate the chicken with the juice of one lime, the oil and garlic in a zip lock bag in the fridge for at least 2 hrs
  2. Next prepare the rice. Start by placing all the ingredients in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil, stirring occasionally
  3. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, then stand, covered, for 10 minutes
  4. For the salsa, mix all the ingredients together and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside for the flavors to blend.
  5. Meanwhile, grill the chicken breasts on low heat either on the stove top or on the BBQ for a smokier flavour until cooked through
  6. When rice and chicken is cooked, plate up by putting some rice on each plate, topped with some chicken and salsa.
  7. Serve with fresh lime

  • Yum this is a very different kind of meal that I would not normally cook for my family although I would live to make it as lunch one day for myself. It’s healthy full of flavour and has delicious fresh ingredients in it.
