Spicy Chicken with Satay Dip

Ingredients

  • 1 garlic clove finely grated
  • 1 tsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 tsp medium curry powder
  • 175g skinless chicken breast
  • 160g cucumber cut into batons
  • 75g coconut, soya or bio yogurt
  • 1 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
  • 1/4 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp gluten-free tamari

Method

  1. Mix the grated garlic, rapeseed oil, and curry powder together in a large bowl. Add the chicken breast and turn it to coat evenly in the mixture. Place a non-stick frying pan on the hob and fry the chicken for 5 mins until it turns golden. Turn the chicken over, cover the pan, and cook for 3 mins more until it is fully cooked.
  2. While the chicken cooks, make the dip by mixing the yogurt, peanut butter, ground cumin, and tamari in a small bowl. Once cooked, slice the chicken. Serve it with satay sticks, the cucumber batons, and the prepared dip for dunking.
