Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 chicken breasts
⅓ cup white rum
⅓ cup fresh mint, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped/crushed
1 teaspoon rock salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 limes, plus 1-2 more for garnish
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthways.
  • Put all of the ingredients into a ziplock bag and stir them all about so everything is coated and mixed up.
  • Marinate for at least 4 hours, but try to leave them over night if you have the time.
  • Cook the chicken as you usually would, we used a griddle pan on a medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side, but these can go in a regular pan, the oven or even on the BBQ!
  • Don't forget to give it one last squeeze of lemon juice to give it that extra kick!
  • Enjoy!
