Ingredients: | What you'll need: |

1 tin of plum (chopped) tomatoes
Your choice of spices (optional : (incl. Thai sweet chilli sauce) see side tab for my spice cupboard)

1. Get your ingredients together: onion, chicken breast fillets, green pepper, oil etc.
** Wash chicken thoroughly and place in mixing bowl.
Slice peppers and onions.
|
2. Dice the chicken (after being washed thoroughly) and place back into mixing bowl. On the chopping board, slice the onion. Add *some* onion slices to the chicken and then add spices (I used 1 tbsp of all-purpose, 1 tspn of hot chilli powder and 3/4 tbsp curry powder - this was just to season the chicken, ideally this would have been done the night before).Mix the spices and onions in to the chicken.
|
3. Add oil (approx. 1.5 tbsp) to cooking pot. Once oil is hot add chicken and fry until thoroughly cooked (not burnt!) *Remember to keep stirring chicken*. Once the chicken is cooked add remaining onion slices and pepper to pot. Leave to cook until onions and pepper become soft. **Keep stirring. |

4. Add tin of chopped tomatoes.
Add spices (optional).
Stir and leave to cook on low/medium heat for approximately 15 minutes. |
This meal took about 35 minutes to make, and there's at least 5 servings. I ate this with sweet potatoes (my new favourite side - recipe coming soon!) and on other occasions brown rice. I also experimented by added Thai Sweet Chilli sauce (another favourite) and it definitely enhanced the flavour.
If you don't fancy eating this for 5 days in a row, or whatever, it is freezable.
