Description

This easy Indian-inspired weeknight supper takes just 35 minutes to get on the table and is a real crowd pleaser.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 46 Skinless Boneless Chicken Thighs
  • 1 x 150g (5 oz) Tub Funky Elephant Honey Spice Marinade
  • 110g (4 oz) Brown Rice 
  • 1 Red Pepper
  • 1 Yellow Pepper 
  • 2 Large Carrots
  • Splash Light Oil
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Brown Mustard Seeds
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Turmeric
  • Sea Salt
  • Juice of 1/2 Lemon

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the grill to 200 degrees (390 Fahrenheit).
  2. Coat the chicken thighs with the marinade, and spread them out over the grill. Grill the chicken (no need to turn them over) for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the marinate has turned ever so slightly crispy.
  3. Cook the rice in a pan full of boiling water for half an hour. I cook my rice in a load of water like pasta and then drain it; it is impossible to burn your rice this way.
  4. Meanwhile, deseed and slice the peppers, and peel the carrots. Slice them into thin matchsticks.
  5. Heat a splash of oil in a large frying pan over a medium high heat, and add the cumin and mustard seeds. Fry the spices until they’re aromatic, and add the veggies, turmeric, a generous pinch of sea salt and the lemon juice.
  6. Cook for roughly 20 minutes until the veggies are tender, but still have a little bit of bite to them.
  7. Serve everything up together on a warm plate.
