Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon
extra virgin olive oil
-
1 tablespoon
runny honey
-
zest and juice of 1 lemon
-
sea salt
-
freshly ground black pepper
-
2 large chicken breasts
Directions
-
Whisk together the olive oil, honey, lemon juice and zest, and a generous amount of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
-
Cut the chicken into large chunks and add to the marinade. Set aside for at least two hours before cooking.
-
If you're using wooden skewers on the grill, soak them in cold water for 20 minutes before threading on the chicken pieces to stop them catching fire if you're using a charcoal grill.
-
Grill the chicken until it is tender and slightly charred, basting with any leftover marinate.
