This recipe makes for a super quick and healthy lunch, ideal for those on a budget as i got my greens for just 85p a bag, and you can always freeze any left over chicken breasts that you do not use!
- What you will need: Desired amount of chicken breasts (I used one)
- Lemon juice (fresh or from a bottle is fine)
- Garlic seasoning (I used Schwartz garlic Italian steak blend, but plain garlic granules is fine)
- A good squeeze of honey.
- Spinach, Rocket or any greens that can be wilted that you enjoy. (I used both spinach and Rocket)
- A dash of oil for your pan
- A sprinkle of Italian hard cheese (optional)
What you will need to do:
- Put your pan on the heat to get warm with a small amount of oil, a griddle pan works best as you get the lovely looking lines on your chicken.
- Once your pan is hot place the chicken breasts in the pan and drizzle lemon juice over the chicken, then a squeeze of honey and brush across the chicken, and finally add your garlic seasoning.
- after a few minutes turn your chicken over and repeat step two onto the other side.
- Cook chicken all the way through, turning over every so often so it cooks through.
- Once cooked turn the heat off and leave the pan on the hob to keep warm.
- Take your chicken out of the pan and place on a small plate whilst you wilt your greens.
- I wilted my greens just over the heat in the griddle pan to save on washing up and to absorb some of the flavours from the pan. I also added a little lemon juice, just a drop and a sprinkle of Italian hard cheese.
- Once veg is wilted place on a plate, cut chicken and place on top of the greens,
- Serve immediately.
