This is an easy dish to make and right now, I like easy. Spicy and bitter sweet, the chicken can be served hot or cold. Serve it hot with lemon butter rice (stir lemon zest and a generous knob of butter through cooked rice). This is a very low fat chicken dish so the butter in the rice is a sin free addition. One very large chicken breast will serve two people, but you could make this with two smaller chicken breasts.
Ingredients
2 tbsp marmalade
1 tbsp Kashmiri chilli powder
2 tbsp orange juice
1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast
2 radishes, sliced thinly
2 fat cloves of garlic, sliced thinly
1 small thumb of ginger, sliced thinly
1 large mild red chilli, sliced into rounds
A splash of sherry (optional)
A few slices of thinly sliced orange
Salt to taste
Coriander leaves to garnish
