Sweet Potato, Ginger & Garlic Chicken Breast Stew

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned all over, 5-6 mins. Turn occasionally. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

While the chicken cooks, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Zest and cut the lime into wedges (see ingredients for amount).

Once golden, transfer the chicken to a bowl, toss with the Thai style spice mix and set aside.

Pop the (now empty) pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the garlic, ginger puree and tomato puree. Cook for 1 min.

Pour in the coconut milk, veg stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount). Add the spiced chicken back into the pan, stir to combine, then bring to the boil. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, 3-4 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Simmer until the sauce has reduced slightly, stirring occasionally, 3-4 mins. 

Stir in the spinach a handful at a time until it's wilted and everything is piping hot, 1-2 mins. 

Remove from the heat, squeeze in some lime juice from a lime wedge and add half the soy sauce. Taste and add more lime juice and soy sauce if needed.
