  • 1 red chili, chopped finely
  • 350 ml chicken / vegetable stock or water
  • salt and pepper

Preparation :

  • Divide the chilli coriander butter mix in the sides of each chicken breast, and place each chicken breast in a 12 inch square of baking paper
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste
  • Roll the baking paper tightly on either ends, to wrap the chicken completely. Twist the sides of the paper to seal the chicken
