Ingredients

(Makes 2)

1 large chicken breast

1 orange zest and juice

1/2 lemon juiced

1/2 lime juiced

1 tsp honey ( optional)

1 tsp coconut oil

50ml coconut milk

2 ice berg leaves whole

Salt and pepper

SALSA

4 baby plum tomatoes chopped

1 small pepper chopped

2 spring onions sliced

1 red chilli chopped

1 tbsp chopped coriander

1tsp lime juice

First make the salsa and leave to one side, then set up your serving plates with the iceberg lettuce wraps ready to go.

Cut the chicken breast in half, cover with cling film and using a rolling pin gently bash the chicken so that it is roughly the same thickness all over, heat a non stick frying pan, add the coconut oil and when melted place your chicken in the pan, on a moderate high heat slightly sear the chicken then finish cooking on a medium heat, once the chicken is almost cooked add the orange, lemon and lime juice and the honey and bring to a rapid bubbling simmer until the sauce thickens to a glaze, this will only take a minute or so, place the chicken in the lettuce wraps spooning over the glaze, return the pan to the heat and add the coconut milk using a spatula scrap the coconut milk around the pan so that it picks up the left over cooking juices, take of the heat immediately, top your sticky sweet glazed chicken with the salsa and finish off with a drizzle of the coconut dressing.
