Ingredients

2 chicken breasts, tenderised
60 ml (4 tbsp) olive oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
30 ml (2 tbsp) tomato paste
15 ml (1 tbsp) Robertsons mixed herbs
5 ml (1 tsp) Robertsons coriander
5 ml (1 tsp) Robertsons paprika
5 ml (1 tsp) Robertsons cayenne pepper
2 tomatoes, finely chopped
60 ml (4 tbsp) lemon juice
15 ml (1 tbsp) honey
15 ml (1 tbsp) Robertsons garlic salt
4 portuguese rolls
1 tomato, sliced
1 red onion, thinly sliced

Cooking Method

Using a rolling pin or tenderizer, flatten the chicken to 2 cm thickness, cut each chicken breast in half, then set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat, add sliced garlic, tomato paste, Robertsons Mixed herbs, Robertsons Coriander, Robertsons Paprika and Robertsons Cayenne Pepper, stir, and cook until fragrant.
Add chopped tomatoes, lemon juice, honey and Robertsons Garlic Salt. Simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Coat the chicken with enough sauce and keep some for later use. Cover the chicken and keep it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium to high heat, add the chicken and cook each side for 5 minutes or until a crust forms.
Cut rolls in half and layer with prego sauce, chicken breast, sliced tomato and onion.
