• Meanwhile, roughly chop tomato and baby spinach leaves. Cut lime into wedges. Finely chop garlic. Drain sweetcorn. • Heat a large frying pan over high heat. • Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are 'popping' out.

• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine peri-peri seasoning, chicken tenderloins and a drizzle of olive oil. • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook chicken tenderloins until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes each side. • In a small heatproof bowl, combine the butter and garlic and microwave in 10 second bursts, until fragrant. Season.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
