Classic Chicken Ciabatta

No comments

Seemingly easy, but this dish can be deceptively difficult to get perfect! A fruity, slightly exotic recipe that I created following a somewhat rambling tour around Tuscany - one too many Sangiovese and you've burnt the Ciabatta

Ingredients

2 skinless chicken breasts
1 large Ciabatta
15g sundried tomatoes
1 Mango, coarsely chopped
25ml mango juice
10ml white wine vinegar
25ml extra virgin olive oil
1 lime, juiced
25g grated ginger
25g brown sugar
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 or 2 birds eye chillies (to taste), finely chopped & deseeded
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
2 tsp mixed turmeric & paprika
Splash Worcestershire sauce
Sea salt & black pepper to taste
Rocket and basil to garnish

Serves: 2
