Preparation time: 35 minutes
Cooking time: 5 minutes 

Ingredients (Serves one)
1 chicken breast
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
1 tbsp runny honey
1 tbsp soy sauce
Half level teaspoon garlic salt
1 shallot, finely chopped
A little cooking oil
1 orange
2oz (50g) oriental salad leaves, washed 

STEP 1 Mix the orange zest, chilli sauce, honey, soy sauce and garlic salt in a dish. 

STEP 2 Clean, trim and cut the chicken into mouth sized pieces. Add the chicken to the sauce and stir to coat the chicken. Leave to one side for 30 minutes. 

STEP 3 Fry the shallot in a little oil until browned. Tip the chicken and sauce into the pan and stir fry until the chicken is cooked through. Transfer to a cold dish and leave to cool. 

STEP 4 Cut the orange segments into mouth sized pieces. Put the oriental leaves into the bottom of your lunch box and stir in the orange segments. Pop the cooled chicken on top and close the lid. 

Chef’s Tip
Try adding mange tout, mini corns and asparagus to the pan with the chicken (all cut into mouth sized pieces) for extra colour and texture.  If you don’t have oriental salad leaves ready to harvest use mixed lettuce leaves. This nutritious, healthy dish is ideal for weight watchers.
