Sticky Lemon Chicken

Ingredients

4 × 150g chicken breasts, with skin
1 large lemon
2 tsp fresh thyme (or a similar amount of dried)

Method

  1. Preheat grill to high and lightly oil a shallow heatproof dish.
  2. Put the chicken in the dish, skin side down, and season with salt & pepper. Grill for 5 mins.
  3. While the chicken is grilling, cut 4 thin slices from the lemon.
  4. Turn the chicken fillets over and put a slice of lemon on top of each one.
  5. Sprinkle over the thyme and a little more seasoning. Drizzle the honey over the top and squeeze over the remaining lemon and spoon around 2 tbsp water.
