Beautiful Fresh Coriander Chicken

This dish is so simple and tastes like summer in your mouth, it's really fresh and really easy and perfect for a mid week meal if your pushed for time.

Ingredients

Bunch of Fresh Corriander

6 Vine Ripped Tomatoes

1 Medium Red Onion

4 Chicken Breasts

Good Glug of Olive Oil

2 Tablespoons of Garlic Paste

1 Lemon

1 Tablespoon of Balsamic Vinegar

1 Tablespoon of Smoked Paprika

1 Tablespoon of Chipottle Sauce (Optional)

Salt to Taste.

There are two methods to this meal, the first method is for a bright vagrant looking dish packed full of colour, the other method is for a quick dish but not so beautiful looking. In summary to show off or just eat. They both taste nearly the same anyway and are both gourgous.

I have more pictures to add to this but due to demand I have posted this recipe to my blog early without the pictures but will add them a little later.

Beautiful Method 

1. Chop around half the corriander that you have, Half the lemon juiced & olive oil and blend until you get a green paste.

2. Score the chicken

3. Rub the mix all over the chicken and place on a baking tray

4. Place the chicken in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes on 180c until nice and succulent 

5. Chop the tomatoes and Onion finely into small sized chunks

6. Chop the corriander and add together with the tomatoes and onions to a saucepan. Leave a small handful of corriander for serving.

7. Add the rest of the lemon juiced, Balsamic, Garlic, Paprika and Chipottle and mix well. Add a little more olive oil if needed.

8. After the chicken is done add it to to mix and place on the hob for 5-10 minutes until warmed through but not cooked enough that it loses it's colour.

9. Taste and add salt if required

10. Serve with rice or new potato's and a little rocket.

Quick Method

1. Chop around half the Corriander that you have, Half the lemon juiced & olive oil and blend until you get a green paste.

2. Score the chicken

3. Rub the mix all over the chicken and place in a oven proof dish

4. Chop the tomatoes and Onion finely into small sized chunks. You can also use good chopped tinned Tomatos.

5. Chop the corriander and add together with the tomatoes and onion to the oven proof dish with the chicken. Leave a small handful of corriander for serving

7. Add the rest of the lemon juiced, Balsamic, Garlic, Paprika and Chipottle and mix well. Add a little more olive oil if needed.

8. Place in the oven for 20 - 30 minutes until cooked

9. Taste and add salt if required

10. Serve with rice or new potato's and a little rocket.

The only reason why this method is not as beautiful is because it loses some of the vibrant colours during cooking but does taste as good maybe a little better.

Enjoy.
