Chilli jam chicken

Chilli jam chicken

Chilli jam chicken

An irresistibly saucy dish (originally from the master of Thai cooking, David Thompson) which gets its funky, authentic edge from home-made chilli jam (gluttons for punishment, we are), used both as a marinade for sliced, uncooked, free-range breast fillet, and the base of the sauce with coconut cream, lime leaves and Thai basil. You just need to sear the chicken, pour in the sauce and dish up over coconut rice. 

To Serve

Serve with coconut or steamed jasmine rice. For a quick, green addition to the dish, throw in chopped, steamed Chinese broccoli or bok choy or a handful of baby spinach at the end of cooking time. With more time (and a well-stocked greengrocer) on your hands, a green papaya salad – shredded green papaya dressed with lime juice, fish sauce, garlic, palm sugar and chilli – would make a sensational accompaniment.

 

Ingredients

Free-range chicken breast (46%), coconut cream (coconut kernel extract, water), red capsicum, red onion, rice bran oil, sugar, fish sauce (anchovy extract (fish) 77%, salt, sugar), tamarind paste (tamarind 65%, water), chilli, garlic, dried shrimp (crustacean), Thai basil, salt, kaffir lime leaves
