Jack’s Thai Grilled Chicken with Mango Salsa

Serves 4

Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless, chicken breasts
2 tsp green Thai curry paste
2 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tbsp olive oil
1 pinch of Chinese 5 spice
Salt and pepper
For the salsa
1 large ripe mango, peeled, stone removed and diced
4 spring onions, thinly sliced
1 sprig of mint, chopped
1 sprig of coriander, chopped
½ red chilli, diced
Juice and zest of one lime
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp caster sugar
75g salted peanuts, roughly chopped

Method:
Place the chicken on a large plate or oven tray and add the curry paste, sesame seeds, olive oil, spice, salt and pepper. Mix everything together and marinade for a couple minutes.

For the salsa, place all the ingredients in the bowl and mix together. Reserve some of the peanuts for garnish.

Heat up a griddle pan on a medium heat and add the chicken. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until cooked through and golden. Place on the serving plates, spoon over the salsa, dust with the remaining peanuts and I love to serve this with some fluffy jasmine rice.
