Ingredients

  • 1 red chilli, deseeded and finely sliced
  • 1 chicken breast
  • 1 tsp jerk seasoning
  • olive oil
  • 1 x220g pineapple rings in juice
  • 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 2 soft buns
  • Slaw
  • 1 carrot
  • 1/4 white cabbage
  • 2 tbsp natural yoghutt

Directions

  • Put a griddle or large non-stick frying pan on a high heat. Carefully cut the chicken breast in half through the middle to give you two thin flat pieces, stabbing it a few times with the knife - this will help the flavour to penetrate.
  • Toss the chicken breasts with the jerk seasoning and 1 tbsp of olive oil until well coated.
  • Cook the chicken in the hot pan for 5 minutes, turning halfway. Char the pineapple rings alongside, reserving the juice.
  • Put the pineapple juice and chilli in a bowl and mix with a small pinch of salt and the red wine vinegar.
  • Scrub the carrot, then coarsely grate with the cabbage. Mix with veg with the yoghurt and a splash of the liquor from the chilli, then season to make a slaw.
  • Stack the chicken and pineapple on one of the pan, then halve and quickly toast the buns.
  • Halve the cooked chicken and layer up in the buns with the slaw, pineapple, a little pickled chilli and an extra sprinkling of jerk seasoning.
  • Pat, squeeze and enjoy.
