Instructions
Grease a non stick baking sheet with the olive oil, evenly layer the courgette ribbons and season with the salt. Roast for 20-25 minutes, turning once in between, until starting to go golden. Remove and set aside.
Marinade the chicken in the 5 spice and yoghurt mix (preferably overnight).
Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a heavy based pan, fry the chicken breasts until cooked through (10-12 minutes) juices must run clear when inserting a knife. Remove from the heat and allow to rest for a couple of minutes. Check seasoning.
Place butter leaves on each serving plate, topped with the roasted courgette ribbons and then the chicken breast.
