Drizzle a little oil in the bottom of an oven tray, tip in the chicken and cook for 10-12 minutes.
- While the chicken cooks make the salad. Put the prepared veg into a large bowl.
- In a small bowl beat together the mango chutney, oil and vinegar and season. Mix well then drizzle over the vegetables. Toss to cover the veg in dressing and divide between plates.

Note: You can freeze half of the chicken once its coated in breadcrumbs. When you’re ready to cook it, roast in an oiled tray in the oven at 200C for 12-15 minutes.
