Cooking Steps
- Pour 300ml cold salted water (double for 4p) into a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Stir in the rice and bring to the boil.
- Once boiling, lower the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 mins.
- Remove the pot from the heat.
- Keep covered for 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).
- Meanwhile, halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot.
- Trim the green beans then chop into thirds.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all).
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Add the chicken and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook until the chicken is browned, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
- Once the chicken is browned, add the shallot and cook until softened, stirring frequently, 3-4 mins.
TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging used to keep it fresh.
- Add the garlic and turmeric and stir to coat the chicken. Cook for 1 min.
- Pour in 100ml water (double for 4p) along with the chicken stock.
- Add the green beans, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium.
- Cover the pan with a lid or some foil.
- Simmer until the green beans are tender, 5-7 mins.
- Once the green beans are tender and the chicken is cooked, remove the lid from the pan and stir in the creme fraiche and cranberry chutney. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
- Bring to the boil, then remove from the heat.
- Stir through half the coriander.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
- Fluff up the rice with a fork and divide between bowls.
- Top with the chicken curry.
- Finish with a sprinkling of the remaining coriander.
