Griddled salsa chicken
How to make Griddled salsa chicken recipe
Serves 4
Preparation time 10 minutes, Cooking time 6 minutes
4 boneless chicken breasts, skin on, about 150 g (5 oz) each
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
Salsa
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, deseeded and diced
1 cucumber, finely diced
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
small handful of fresh coriander leaves, chopped

Method:
Remove the skin from the chicken breasts. Using kitchen scissors, cut each breast in half lengthways but without cutting the whole way through. Open each breast out flat. Brush with the oil and season well with salt and pepper.
Heat a ridged griddle pan until very hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 3 minutes on each side or until cooked through and grill-marked.Meanwhile, make the salsa. Mix together the onion, tomatoes, cucumber, red chilli, coriander and lime juice. Season well with salt and pepper.
Serve the chicken hot with the spicy salsa spooned over and around.
For griddled tuna with pineapple salsa, prepare and cook 4 thick fresh tuna steaks, about 175 g (6 oz) each, as for the butterflied chicken breasts above.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together 6 tablespoons roughly diced drained canned pineapple, 1 finely chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped fresh root ginger, 1 deseeded and finely chopped red chilli, the grated rind and juice of 1 lime, 2 teaspoons clear honey and salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the pineapple salsa with the griddled tuna.
