Ingrediënten

  • 1 fresh Scotch bonnet or red chilli
  • 1 x 150g skinless chicken breast
  • 1 heaped teaspoon jerk seasoning plus extra for sprinkling
  • 1 x 220g tin of pineapple rings in juice
  • 1 carrot
  • ¼ of a white cabbage 150g
  • 2 heaped tablespoons natural yoghurt
  • 2 large soft buns

Instructies

  • Halve, deseed and finely slice the Scotch bonnet chilli, place it in a sieve and run cold water over it to start softening the kick.
  • Put a griddle or large non-stick frying pan on a high heat.
  • Carefully cut the chicken breast in half through the middle to give you two thin flat pieces.
  • Toss them with the jerk seasoning and 1 tablespoon of olive oil until well coated.
  • Cook the chicken in the hot pan for 5 minutes, turning halfway.
  • Char the pineapple rings alongside, reserving the juice.
  • Put the pineapple juice and chilli in a bowl and mix with a small pinch of sea salt and 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar.
  • Scrub the carrot, then coarsely grate with the cabbage.
  • Mix the veg with the yoghurt and a splash of liquor from the chilli, then season to perfection to make a slaw.
  • Stack the chicken and pineapple on one side of the pan, then halve and quickly toast the buns.
  • Halve the cooked chicken and layer up in the buns with the slaw, pineapple, a little pickled chilli (it’s hot!
  • ), and an extra sprinkling of jerk seasoning.
  • Pat, squeeze and enjoy.
