Ingredients

4 chicken breasts

For the marinade

1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup coriander leaves
1tsp lime zest
1/4 cup lime juice
3/4tsp oregano
1tsp cumin powder
1.5Tbsp fresh mint leaves
4 garlic cloves
1tsp salt
1/2tsp black pepper

Directions

Place the ingredients for the marinade in a food processor.
Whizz until the coriander is finely chopped.
In a large bowl, pour the marinade over the chicken breasts.
Cover with cling film and leave for 12 to 36 hours in the fridge.
Chargrill the chicken breasts on a barbecue or griddle pan to add color, then place in the oven at 200°C/gas 6 to cook through, which will take approximately ten minutes.
Once the chicken breasts are cooked the whole way through (or reach 75°C, if you have a meat thermometer), take them out and leave them to rest for a few minutes.
Slice and serve.
