We all love chicken. Whether fried, stewed, roasted, it is a comfort food. Here’s one more chicken recipe, a Simple Peppercorn Chicken With Chilli & Mint Recipe by Woolworths to give a try over this long weekend.

For this lovely chicken delight, you’ll need the following ingredients:

Chicken breasts

Sea salt

Fresh mint leaves

Red chilies

Olive oil

Honey

Soy sauce

Rainbow peppercorns

Start by preheating the oven to 180ºC. Put the mint leaves, chillies and olive oil in the jug attachment of a stick blender and whizz to a fairly fine pesto. Season the breasts lightly with salt then slide your fingertips under the skin on top of the breasts, breaking the fine membrane as you go to create a pouch. Take half the mint paste and spread it evenly under the breast skin and pull the breast skin back into place. Cut a deep horizontal slash into the fleshiest part of each breast, and rub the remaining paste into the slashes then set aside for an hour, or until you’re ready to cook the breasts.

Place the breasts skin-side up in a roasting pan, cover them lightly with tin foil or baking paper and roast until they are just cooked through. Drain any excess fat from the pan. Warm the honey until it’s runny, then stir in the soy sauce then drizzle this mixture all over the chicken breasts. before pressing the crushed peppercorns onto the skin of the breast. Turn the oven grill on to its highest setting and place the roasting pan on a middle shelf, not too close to the element. Grill the breasts for 5-8 minutes, basting them every few minutes with the honey-soy glaze.
