This was a huge hit in our house. It's so good. I couldn't find the Pataks Balti paste so used the Madras Chicken Curry Paste instead, and it still tasted fantastic! It's very easy. I also put potatoes in. I also cut the chicken up first and just left it in the frying pan.


Ingredients (serves 6)

    * 2 teaspoons olive oil
    * 6 x 150g single chicken breast fillets
    * 1 brown onion, cut into thin wedges
    * 1/4 cup Pataks Balti curry paste
    * 1 cup reduced-salt chicken stock
    * 400g can diced tomatoes
    * 500g kumara (orange sweet potato), peeled, cut into 2cm pieces
    * 200g green beans, topped, halved
    * 1 1/2 cups basmati rice, cooked, to serve

Method
      Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until browned. Slice.

      Heat remaining oil in frying pan over medium heat. Add onion. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add curry paste. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add stock, tomatoes and kumara. Cover. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, partially covered, for 10 minutes.

      Add chicken to frying pan. Cover. Cook for 5 minutes. Add beans. Cook, covered, for a further 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Serve with rice.

We just made this for tea and it was so delicious! Like you we used the Madras as couldn't find Pataks and we also added potatoes to bulk it out a bit! Was so good!
