Instructions
- Season your chicken with a sprinkle of salt, a dash of pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Then, pop it into a hot pan to brown both sides. Don’t stress about cooking it through just yet—we’ll handle that later. Once browned, remove the chicken from the pan.
- Spice it up! In the same pan, add your red curry paste and let it cook for 2 minutes while stirring. This step will really wake up those flavours!
- Rice time! Add the basmati rice to the pan and stir it around, making sure each grain gets a good coat of that delicious curry paste.
- Add the essentials. Pour in 3 cups of water and give the bottom of the pan a good scrape to loosen up all those yummy bits stuck to the pan. This will add even more flavour to your dish!
- Veggie power! Spread your frozen stir-fry vegetables over the top, then place your browned chicken pieces back on top.
- Cook to perfection. Pop a lid on your pan, turn the heat down to low, and let it cook for 25 minutes. After that, check the rice—if it’s not quite there, give it another 5 minutes with the lid on.
