Serves 2

Ingredients

2 x 2 x 125g skinless chicken breast fillets

2 tsps garam masala

1 tsp ground coriander

1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, crushed

Method

1. Make slashes in the chicken breast fillets. Mix the spices, most of the chilli, the garlic and ginger with 1 teaspoon cold water to make a paste. Rub into the chicken and set aside.

3. Meanwhile, cook the rice to pack instructions, then stir through most of the coriander. Serve the rice and chicken, topped with the yogurt and the remaining coriander and red chilli.
