1 tsp smoked paprika\u00a0\u00a0
\u00bd tsp onion granules\u00a0\u00a0
\u00bc tsp cayenne pepper (optional)\u00a0\u00a0

cooked dried rice and your favourite vegetables, to serve\u00a0\u00a0
lime wedges, to serve\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you do:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Put the chicken breasts between sheets of cling film and bash with a rolling pin or meat mallet until they\u2019re about 2cm thick. Mix together the paprika, onion granules, cayenne pepper (if using) and a little seasoning. Put the chicken in a bowl and sprinkle over the spice mix, turning the chicken to coat it.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Spray a non-stick griddle or frying pan with 1 cal cooking spray and put it over a high heat. When it\u2019s hot, add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. While that\u2019s happening, put the honey and chilli sauce (or sriracha) in a small saucepan and warm over a low heat, stirring to combine.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Spoon a quarter of the honey mixture over each cooked chicken breast. Divide them between 4 plates, along with the rice and vegetables. Serve with the lime wedges for squeezing over.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
