  • 3 tablespoons mint sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • salt and pepper

Method

  1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl
  2. Retain 4 tablespoons of marinade aside to serve
  3. Add chicken to marinade, toss to coat thoroughly
  4. Allow chicken to sit in the marinade for at least 2 hours
  5. Remove chicken and discard marinade
  6. Cook chicken on a hot BBQ or fry pan for approximately 5 minutes per side or until cooked through

Notes

Prepare the marinade in the morning if you wish and it doesn't take long to cook the chicken and prepare the salad. I cooked mine in a fry pan but The BBQ gives the chicken a darkened crispy coating.
