Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 4 cloves Garlic finely grated

Instructions

  • Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl big enough to put the chicken breasts into
  • Season with a little salt and pepper
  • Bung in the chicken, give it a good mix to ensure it is well covered and then cover the bowl with clingfilm
  • Leave for at least 8 hours, 24 hours is better
  • Get the chicken out and bring it to room temperature before cooking
  • The chicken is best cooked on the barbecue but can be cooked on a griddle or even on the grill. Cook for around 7 minutes per side but check the chicken is properly cooked before serving
