heres a great recipe for Chicken On The Griddle which we love

chicken satay skewers - mix together 1 tbsp each smooth peanut butter, soy sauce, lemon juice, 1 tbsp honey, a crushed garlic clove, half tbsp sunflower oil and season with a little black pepper. Thread chunks of chicken onto skewers and cook on the griddle or alternatively under a preheated grill, brushing occasionally with the marinade.

Ingredients
4 chicken breasts

Marinade
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp runny honey
freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
a little vegetable oil

Method
Cover the chicken breasts with cling film or greaseproof paper and flatten slightly with a mallet or a rolling pin until about one and a half cm. (1/2 inch) thick.
In a bowl mix together all the ingredients for the marinade and marinate for at least one hour. Remove the chicken and reserve the marinade.
Heat the griddle until really hot (or you could use a frying pan), brush with a little oil and cook the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Strain the marinade, pour it into a small saucepan, bring to the boil and then simmer for one minute (add a little water if necessary).
Serve the chicken with the sauce. you can also serve with a selection of griddled vegetables, such as courgettes, mange tout, sweetcorn and tomatoes.

simple! enjoy!
