• Meanwhile, trim and halve green beans. Slice courgette into thin rounds. Finely chop garlic. • Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, turning to coat.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
