Provided by Mary Cadogan

Categories     Buffet, Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 5

6-8 skinless boneless chicken breasts, (about 1kg/2lb 4oz in total)
2 tbsp clear honey

2 tbsp olive oil
1 curly lettuce , such as Batavia or Webb's

Steps:

Leave to cool, then wrap in foil and chill until ready to eat. (The chicken may now be frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost before serving.)
  • On the day, spread the lettuce over a large platter, tearing up any large leaves. Slice the chicken breasts, keeping them together, then arrange over the lettuce.
