Instructions

1

Preheat a griddle and keep it hot until ready to use.

2

Peel the carrots then use the peeler to shave the carrot in to ribbons. Shave the cucumber too, but make sure to discard the middle seeds. Place both into a bowl with the shallot, adding the salt, Splenda Granulated and mint leaves. Stir well and set aside.

3

Stir together the garlic, cumin, lime, turmeric and oil and rub over the chicken. Place the chicken carefully on to the griddle, probably 2 at a time and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side. Make sure that you leave the chicken to seal for a few minutes before touching.

4

Drain off the vinegar marinade from the carrot then serve the salad with the chicken. All you may need is a handful of punchy salad greens.

Tip 1

Use tofu or Quorn instead of chicken for a vegetarian option.

Tip 2

Roll the lime between the palms of your hands to release as much juice as possible.
