  4. Wrap the chicken breasts tightly in cling film and then steam them for about 25 minutes.
  5. To check whether the breasts are cooked you need to unwrap one and make a cut into the underside of the breast to check that the meat is cooked through. If not, re-wrap and put back into the steamer for another 10 minutes or so.
