Cooking Instructions:
  • 1. TO PREPARE THE VEGETABLES AND CHICKEN:

    Trim both ends off the green beans then cut in half. Open the peas and remove the red chilli from the top. Finely slice if using or discard if not. Using half the spring onion thinly slice on the diagonal. Remove the free-range chicken thigh from its packaging and pat dry with a paper towel then cut each thigh into 5-6 even pieces.

  • 2. TO PREPARE THE SPRING ONION RICE:

    Open the bag of steamed rice, breaking up any clumps by squeezing the bag gently. Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the rice, season with salt and pepper and cook for 2-3 mins until hot. Add the spring onions and cook for a further 1-2 mins mixing to combine all.

  • 3. TO COOK THE POPPADOM:

    Stove top option (preferred): Place a non-stick frying pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, cook the cumin poppadom for about 10-15 seconds on each side. It will crisp up as it cool. Microwave option: Place the poppadom in the microwave and cook on high for 30-40 secs, turning over halfway through the cooking time.

  • 4. TO COOK THE ALMOND CHICKEN:

    Wipe out the pan and place back over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and cook for 2-3 mins. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 mins. Add the almond paste and cook for 1-2 mins, stirring often to ensure the paste doesn’t burn. Add the coconut cream, peas, chilli if using and 2 Tbsp of water. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat then cook for 2-3 mins, or until the chicken is cooked.
