Steps:

• Whizz sugar and vinegar with mint until finely chopped. Tip into a serving bowl and set aside for 10 mins for the sugar to fully dissolve.

Steps:

• In a food processor chop mint and rosemary leaves with sugar finely.
• Put in a bowl.

Steps:

• Put the mint, garlic, parsley and pepper in a food processor and coarsly chop.
• Add the olive oil and wine (or apple juice)
• Blend again. If you are using dried hot red pepper flakes, add it now, no need to chop it further.
• Place chicken breasts and marinade into a zippered plastic bag, shake it about, and allow to marinate at least 3 hours up to overnight.
• About 1/2 an hour prior to cooking, add 2 tbsp lemon juice. (Adding the lemon juice sooner, will add too much lemon flavor, and it will tend to "cook" portions of the chicken).
• Start cooking on medium on the BBQ, and reduce to low. You absolutely don't want it to dry out. Times will vary depending on your BBQ and the thickness of the breast. I use one of those BBQ saute pans with the holes in it, and it works better than directly on the grill. Feel free to pour the extra marinade over the breasts as they cook.
• I most often serve this with a wild rice and orzo pilaf, and fresh vegetables (such as asparagus or snow peas or sauteed yellow zucchini with red peppers, red onions and grape tomatoes, with a bit of that mint added at the end).

Steps:

• Place mint leaves in a small bowl. Stir in water, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper until sugar is dissolved. Cover and let steep for 20 minutes, then serve immediately with lamb.
