Ingredients

Main Ingredients

500 grams of chicken tenderloins

Marinade Ingredients

3 garlic cloves
¼ cup olive oil
1 teaspoon white vinegar
½ teaspoon mustard
¼ teaspoon turmeric
½ teaspoon oregano
½ teaspoon chili paste/mince
1 tablespoon of yogurt
salt and pepper as required

Marinating the chicken tenderloins for at least 1-2 hours is ideal.
Serve these with a delicious healthy salad.

Method

Step 1.

Season the chicken tenderloins with salt and pepper. To make the marinade, combine the marinade ingredients except for the yogurt in a mini food processor and bring it to a paste. Once well combined, add the yogurt and mix it through. Alternatively, you can make your marinade in a mortar and pestle (I love to do mine in a mortar and pestle). Pour the marinade over the chicken tenderloins and mix well to coat, massaging all over.

Step 2.

Heat pan over medium-high heat (no added oil necessary). Add the chicken and cook for 6 to 10 minutes, turning several times until cooked through. Alternatively, prepare a charcoal fire barbecue and cook.
