Notas

This chicken goes well with pasta, potatoes or even salad and rice. I often serve it with broccoli and mashed potato - 150g of mash adds about 132 calories.

Honey and mustard are one of my favourite flavour combinations. This is another of my go-to dishes - it's low in calories with no oil or butter required. If you like a thicker sauce, add the cornflour paste.
