Flavour lean chicken with Jamaican-inspired spicy seasoning, griddle then and serve in a bread roll with mango, tomato, lettuce and sauce

Ingredients

2 skinless chicken breasts
few thyme sprigs, leaves picked
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp jerk seasoning
juice 1 lime
2 large bread rolls
½ small mango, stoned, peeled and sliced
1 tomato, sliced
1 Little Gem lettuce heart, shredded
2 tbsp mayonnaise and ketchup, to serve (optional)

Instructions

Put the chicken breasts in between pieces of cling film and bash with a rolling pin to flatten. Mix together the thyme, oil, jerk seasoning and half the lime juice in a bowl. Add the chicken and leave to marinate for 5 mins.
Heat a griddle pan until hot and cook the chicken for 4-5 mins each side or until cooked through. Remove from the heat. Meanwhile, toast the cut sides of the buns for 1-2 mins.
Put the chicken on the buns and top with the mango, tomato and a handful of lettuce. Squeeze over the rest of the lime and top with mayo and ketchup, if you like.
