Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Put the chicken in a roasting tin and rub with the jerk paste, olive oil and a little seasoning. Bake for 15 mins until it is cooked, then leave to cool. You can do this a day or 2 in advance if you like.

Step 2

Build each bowl by putting half the lentils, the cooked chicken, spring onions, chilli, coriander and mango in each, with lime wedges at the side. Put yoghurt in a separate pot with the mango chutney swirled through. Coat in the yoghurt dressing just before eating
