Centra's 15 minute workouts

Simple to make, this dish is packed with protein, making it an ideal recovery meal after a tough training session. In addition to protein, peanut butter is also a good source of potassium, fibre and unsaturated fats so it’s a good energy source too. However, you should choose your peanut butter carefully. Always opt for the all-natural, sugar-free offerings.

What you need:

  • 2 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp peanut butter (look out for the pure, sugar- and additive-free versions)
  • 100ml chicken stock
  • 2 chicken fillets
  • 1 sliced red pepper
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 chopped cloves garlic
  • 1 knob butter
  • Salt and pepper
