Top Tips

  • Try to pick up chicken breasts that are similar in size so that they will cook evenly – if they are unequal, you can thin the thicker ones by covering them in cling film and bashing with a rolling pin until your desired thickness is reached
  • Make sure the ingredients for the marinade are thoroughly mixed
  • Cook the chicken on a medium-low heat initially, and don’t flip or move around too often or you won’t get the lovely brown colour on the sides
  • Keep stirring the sauce when on a high heat so it doesn’t stick to the pan
