Ingredients

  • ( 2.5 medium) Skinless Chicken Thigh
  • ( 1.5 tbsp) Olive Oil
  • ( 1 cup) Hulled Pumpkin Seeds
  • ( 2 cloves) Garlic
  • ( 2.5 long) Long Green Chilli
  • ( 1000 ml) Stock
  • ( 1.5 bunch) Coriander Leaves
  • ( 3 cup) Green Beans
  • ( 2/3 cup) Basmati Rice

Method

  1. In a frying pan, add the oil and brown the chicken thighs on all sides, you will finish cooking the chicken in the sauce later so it doesn’t need to be cooked through at this stage.
  2. In a clean frying pan over a medium heat toast the pumpkin seeds until they turn golden, alternatively you could bake them in the oven at 150 degrees for 15 minutes or until golden.
  3. Add the toasted pumpkin seeds as well as the onion and garlic and chillies and blend until smooth and then add the stock and coriander and again blend until smooth.
  4. Add the sauce mixture to a pan as well as the chicken and cook for 10 minutes before adding the green beans and cook for a further 5 minutes.
  5. Serve with Rice cooked as per packet instructions. Alternatively, you can use precooked microwave rice to save time.
