The broad bean season is unpredictable, invariably short and entirely dependant on weather conditions. Should fresh beans be unavailable, head to the freezer section of the supermarket - nutritionally they match fresh beans, and already peeled, take one step out of this delicious dish.

Ingredients
4 small organic chicken breasts
2 500 gram packets frozen broad beans, (equivalent to 2kg broad beans in their pods)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tbsp arrowroot
1 lemon zest and juice only
2 tbsp dill, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
¼ cup water
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
|
Method Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Brush and season the chicken breasts with olive oil and seal each side for 2 minutes on a grill pan. Transfer to a baking sheet to cook through for 15 minutes. Note: Many people of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern decent have a genetic condition involving the lack of a particular blood enzyme called favism. For them, eating broad beans (fava beans) produces a blood disease with general symptoms including fatigue, extreme paleness, nausea, abdominal and/or back pain, fever, chills and difficulty breathing. Makes 4 servings |
