Cooking Steps

1
  • Thinly slice capsicum.
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Cook capsicum, until tender, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and allow to cool slightly.
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber in rounds. Roughly chop tomato.
  • Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season chicken generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
3
  • While the capsicum is cooling, return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).

TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.

Have a BBQ? Preheat BBQ to a high heat. When the BBQ is hot, add chicken to BBQ grill plate and cook, until charred and cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate.

Finish & serve
