Ingredients

For 2 portions…

• 2 Chicken Breasts


• 2tsp walnut or olive oil


• 100ml fresh orange juice


• 2tsp honey


• 1 tin chopped tomatoes


• 1 large onion


• 1 small pepper


• handfull of mushrooms


• 1 banana

• 1tbsp tomato purée


• 1tsp oregano


• 1/2 tsp coriander


• small lump of butter

Method

1. Score the chicken breasts lightly on each side, coat with oil and ground pepper, and leave to marinade.


2. Finely chop the onion and pepper, and gently fry in the butter until soft. Then add the finely chopped mushrooms, and fry for a couple more minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, excluding the orange juice, honey and banana, and simmer until thickened. Add the chopped banana about 5 minutes before serving.


3. Boil the orange juice and honey seperately, reducing to a thick syrupy consistency, just letting the honey caramelise slightly.


4. Meanwhile, grill the chicken until golden and cook the pasta.


5. Serve the tomato sauce on a bed of pasta, with the orange syrup drizzled over the chicken, accompanied by a green salad.
