  • 2 skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cayenne pepper (a teaspoon)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 ground allspice (a teaspoon)
  • 1/2 ground black pepper (a teaspoon)
  • 1/2 dried thyme (a teaspoon)

Instructions

  • In a bowl combine and mix well the cayenne pepper, cinnamon, allspice, black pepper, thyme, grated onions and a pinch of salt, rubbing in the onion with the spices.
  • Pat the chicken breast dry with a towel to ensure there is no excess fluid on the skin.
  • Add the spice all over the chicken breasts, pressing in in to ensure it sticks to the chicken.
  • In a pan at medium heat warm up the cooking oil and fry the chicken breasts until cooked for about 7 to 8 minutes each side depending on the thickness of your fillets.
  • Once the chicken is cooked take it off the pan and drain off most the cooking oil leaving about a tablespoon worth.
  • Add the lemon slices and fry them for about a minute each side until they start to caramelize.
