- Wipe the chicken breasts with damp kitchen towel, dip in a small quantity of orange juice and then into generously seasoned polenta or flour to coat. Heat the oil in a large pan and brown the chicken pieces well on both sides for minutes in total. Remove from pan.
- Add the onion to the pan and saut&# for minutes until softened. Add the pineapple, raisins and thyme, then pour in the remaining orange juice. Return the chicken to the pan, cover and simmer for minutes until tender. Season to taste.
- If you want, stir the cornflour into the sauce and simmer for a further minute until slightly thickened. Garnish with chopped parsley or spring onion. Serve on a bed of rice with salad.
