Directions
- Step 1 Lay the chicken in a shallow dish. Whisk up the chilli paste or harissa, oil, lemon juice and a little salt in a small bowl. Pour over the chicken and rub in to coat each piece.
- Step 2 To make the dressing, halve, seed and dice the tomatoes. Mix in a bowl with the chilli paste, lemon juice, oil and a little salt. Set aside.
- Step 3 Heat a griddle pan or start the barbecue, then cook the chicken for 6-8 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove and wrap in foil to keep it warm.
- Step 4 Separate the lettuces and spread the leaves over a serving platter. Slice the cucumber and radishes and scatter over the lettuce.
- Step 5 Cut the chicken into strips and toss with half the dressing in a large bowl. Tip on to the salad and scatter with the pine nuts and mint leaves. Drizzle over the remaining dressing and serve warm.
