Serves: 4

Cooking Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

4 cobs corn, with husks
Westfalia Butter Flavoured Avocado Oil, for brushing
15ml (1 tbsp) finely grated lime rind
sea salt, to taste
4 x 200g chicken breast fillets, trimmed

Instructions

Pull the husks back from the corn and tie with kitchen string. Braai until tender and golden, about 10 – 12 minutes.

Combine the butter-flavoured avocado oil, lime rind and salt, and brush over the cooked corn. Set aside.

Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally, brush with the butter-flavoured avocado oil and braai until cooked through, about 1 – 2 minutes on each side.

Mix to combine the coriander, spring onions, chilli, plain avocado oil and lime juice. Top the chicken with the coriander mixture and serve with the corn cobs and lime wedges.
