I was feeling super lazy the other day,
and when I get like that then whatever I make
generally turns out to be a "one pot" kinda of deal...

Although, simple as it was -
this was a fantastically
tasty dish!

#WhatsCookingChallenge - Coriander Tikka Chicken Curry with Avocado

🍴

I am not normally one to opt for packet sauces,
and even when I do, I will generally add my own spin on it anyway...
And like I said... I was feeling rather lazy, so yeaaah.. haha :)

What you need...

A pack of filleted chicken breasts
A bunch of celery sticks
A handful of roughly chopped coriander (cilantro)
250ml fresh cream
A tikka chicken cook in sauce (or perhaps just curry powder if you prefer)
A chicken stock cube
About a teasoon of freshly chopped garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
One ripe Avocado
Basmati rice

Heat a deep pan or pot on the stove,
with a little bit of olive oil.
While that is heating up,
slice the chicken breasts into strips.

Once the pan has heated add the chicken and seal it.
Then chop up the celery, coriander and garlic
and add that to the pan too,
along with the chicken stock cube
and the salt and pepper.

Keep the heat high and cook for about 5 minutes.
Then, lower the heat to medium,
add the sauce and the cream,
pop the lid back on and leave it to
gently simmer for at least an hour
so that the chicken is lovely and tender,
and the flavours have a chance to develop.

While that is simmering,
you can cook the basmati rice
and chop up a little extra coriander
to serve with...

Sometimes I find that casseroles, curries and saucy dishes
can look a bit "sloppy" when it comes to the plating -
so I generally prefer to separate them on the plate...
that way when you serve it, it looks aesthetically pleasing,
and it is as simple as the recipient
lifting up the bowl and pouring it onto the plate themselves,
but at least it looks good on arrival,
instead of giving a plate of "slop" haha :)

ENJOY!!
