Ingredients
- 500 g chicken thighs, cut into 2 cm pieces
- 2 tsp madras curry powder
- Sea salt flakes
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- Steamed rice, roughly chopped cucumber, coriander sprigs, thinly sliced chilli, crushed peanuts, lime wedges, to serve
For the satay sauce
- ⅓ cup smooth peanut butter
- ⅓ cup sweet chilli sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- ¼ cup (60 ml) water
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, madras curry powder and a generous pinch of salt and mix well to combine.
- To make the satay sauce, combine the ingredients in a second bowl and whisk well until smooth.
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat, then add the onion. Cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes, or until softened. Add the chicken and cook for a further 5-6 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat and stir through the satay sauce. Add a little extra splash of water if needed to thin out the sauce a little.
- Divide rice between serving bowls and top with the satay chicken and cucumber. Sprinkle with coriander, chilli and crushed peanuts and serve lime wedges on the side.
