Citrus Sauté Chicken

Aromatic flavours of citrus team deliciously with basil and a dash of chilli, though do marinade overnight to both tenderise and allow the full flavours to develop. Sauté or barbecue, both are delicious; serve with a salad such as Bean, Feta & Mint which features in the photograph.
