Mexican Style Turkey

Turkey breasts, caster sugar, chilli powder, chocolate and coriander: just some of the ingredients that are brought together in this recipe. perhaps not surprisingly, i couldn't find another quite like it on zaar! this is another recipe from the international masters '1001 recipes for pan or wok' recipe cards, posted for the 2005 zaar world tour. the word chocolate comes from the aztec word 'xocolati'. the aztecs often used cocoa beans to make unsweetened drinks. see notes below about the sort of chocolate most suitable for this recipe. 15g = 1/2 ounce. The preparation and cooking times do not include the 2 hours chilling and marinating time.
