Cut each chicken breast along one side from top to bottom, but not all the way through, to gradually open each chicken breast like a book.

Put in a bowl with 1 tbsp of oil and the ras el hanout, then season well and toss to coat.
step 3
Heat a griddle or frying pan to medium and cook the chicken breasts for 5 minutes on each side until dark golden and cooked through.
step 4
Whisk all of the dressing ingredients with some seasoning and stir through the chopped salad. Serve with the chicken.
