Method

Step 1

Place the chicken breast between pieces of cling film and bash with a mallet/rolling pin to make a flat escalope, approx. 4-5mm thick. Then divide into 2 equal portions.

Step 2

Brush the chicken breast pieces with 1 tsp of the oil. Place on a hot frying or griddle pan and cook on each side for 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a small pan heat the remaining tsp oil and add the garlic and spring onions and cook for 2 minutes until the onions are soft. Then add the parsley and stir for 1 minute.

Step 4

Add the pepper, lemon juice and 1 tbsp water. Stir in the yogurt.

Step 5

Put the chicken on a plate and serve with the sauce.

Recipe tips

This works well with turkey, beef or pork escalopes. Or try the sauce with grilled fish.
The 'bashing' tenderises the meat and makes the fillet much faster to cook so is ideal for barbecues.
