Brazilian Coconut Chicken

Ok,. so this is something you can cook either on the hob or in the slow cooker. The coconut milk adds a summer feel to a lovely dish.

Ingredients


  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
    1/2 tsp cumin
    1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
    1/2 tsp tumeric
    1/2 tsp coriander
    salt (& pepper)
    4 chicken breasts (medium sized)
    2 tbsps olive oil (divided)
    1/2 onion (medium, chopped)
    2 tsps fresh ginger (minced)
    2 cloves garlic (minced)
    1 can diced tomatoes (or 8 tomatoes de seeded)
    1 can light coconut milk


Preparation


  • 1 glug of oil in your wok/large pan
    Saute the onions until tender - 5mins approx.
    Add minced ginger and garlic
    Chop the chicken into 2 inch cubes and toss with spices. and then fry in the pan until virtually cooked ( 15mins) but keep stirring so they don't stick - if cooking in a slow cooker just "throw it all in"!
    Next add the tomatoes and continue to cook for 1 more minute, stirring constantly.
    pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer on medium-high for 10-12 minutes or until thickened.
    Serve over rice. Ideally with a Pina Colada!
