Chargrilled chicken with quick tomato chutney


Ingredients (serves 4)

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 400g can diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
  • olive oil cooking spray
  • 4 chicken breast fillets, trimmed
  • 1 cup skim milk
  • 1 cup instant polenta (see note)
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped
  1. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, raisins and mixed spice. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until chutney is thick. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Meanwhile, preheat a non-stick frying pan or chargrill over medium heat. Lightly spray both sides chicken breast fillets with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook chicken fillets, 2 at a time if necessary, for 4 minutes each side or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Slice chicken crossways. Cover with foil to keep warm.
  3. Bring skim milk and 4 cups cold water to the boil in a large saucepan over high heat. Add polenta in a thin, steady stream, stirring constantly. Cook over low heat, stirring, for 4 to 5 minutes or until thick. Remove from heat. Stir in parmesan and parsley.
  4. Spoon polenta onto plates. Top with chicken and tomato chutney. Serve.
