Ingredients

  • 2 large (about 500g) Chicken breasts, cut into 2.5cm chunks
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 1 Onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Mild curry powder
  • 1 x 400g tin Chopped tomatoes
  • 1 x 400ml tin Coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 250g Long-grain rice, to serve

You’ll need: Large saucepan, Medium saucepan

Method

  1. Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.

  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion for 5 minutes until soft. Stir in the garlic and curry powder and cook for 1 minute.

  3. Add the tomatoes, coconut milk and salt. Bring to a gentle simmer.

  4. Add the chicken and simmer gently for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly and the chicken is cooked through. Cut a piece in half to check it is white with no pink.

  5. Taste, add a little more salt if needed, and serve with the rice.

Storage

Curry keeps in the fridge up to 2 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Cool rice quickly and eat within 1 day. Reheat until piping hot all the way through.
