  • 4 free-range chicken breasts
  • 300 g butternut, chopped
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1 x 400 g can coconut milk
  • 2 T chopped coriander
  • zest and juice of 1 lime

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Pour the rice into an ovenproof dish.

Arrange the chicken breasts and butternut chunks on top of the rice and drizzle with the olive oil.

Combine the coconut milk, coriander, lime zest and juice, cinnamon, korma spice, korma paste and chicken stock.

Pour the spicy coconut milk mixture over the chicken-andrice dish and season to taste.
