Method
step 1
Butterfly the chicken breast by slicing in half horizontally to make 2 thinner pieces. Put chicken between 2 sheets of clingfilm and gently bash with a meat hammer or rolling pin to flatten to an even thickness. Mix 1 tbsp olive oil with 1 tbsp of the lemon juice, half the zest and some seasoning and rub all over the chicken. Leave to marinate while you start the beans.
step 2
Soften the spring onion whites and garlic in the remaining oil in a frying pan. Stir in the cabbage and remaining zest for a minute, then add the beans and stock. Simmer for 8-10 minutes until the cabbage is tender and the stock almost all gone.
step 3
Meanwhile heat a griddle pan until smoking hot, then add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until cooked through and charred.
step 4
Stir the remaining lemon juice and the cream into the beans with the spring onion greens and heat through before seasoning. Serve with the chargrilled chicken.
