Thai Style Spiced Chicken Breast and Satay Sauce

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, fry the chicken until browned, 5 mins each side. Sprinkle over the Thai style spice blend (add less if you'd prefer things milder) and season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

a) Once browned, lay the chicken onto a baking tray and roast on the top shelf of your oven until cooked through, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

b) Meanwhile, trim and peel the carrots. Use the peeler to peel long ribbons down the length of the carrots, stopping at the core.

c) In a medium bowl, combine the carrot, rice vinegar, sugar (see pantry for amount) and a pinch of salt. Set aside to pickle.

a) In a small bowl, add the peanut butter, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce and hot water for the sauce (see pantry for amount). TIP: If your peanut butter has hardened, pop it in a bowl of hot water for 1 min. 

b) Stir well until smooth. Set your satay sauce aside.

a) Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all). Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin.

b) When everything's ready, fluff the rice up with a fork and stir through three quarters of the coriander.

c) Slice the roasted chicken widthways into 2cm slices.

a) Share the coriander rice between your bowls.

b) Top with the sliced chicken and carrot pickle. 

c) Drizzle the satay sauce over the chicken and finish with a sprinkle of peanuts and the remaining coriander.

Enjoy!
