3. Cut halfway through the middle of the chicken breasts from the side to create a 'stuffing pocket'. Slip 1-2 lime slices in each breast and season. Tuck 6 unpeeled garlic cloves and 2 fresh red chillies around the chicken.

4. Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). To check if they are done, prod the chicken with your finger - if it's still a bit soft, give it a bit longer.
