Chicken Pilaf

This dish may not look glamorous but is a great midweek meal, only need one pan and contains about 2 of your 5 a day. Healthy food and less washing up!

Serves 2

1 Medium Onion, finely sliced
2 Chicken Breasts, cut into chunks
2 Tbsp Korma curry pasta
1 1/2 Mug of Basmati rice, washed
2 Mugs of frozen vegetables
1 Mug of frozen spinach
2 Mugs of chicken stock
1 tsp dried coriander

1. Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Fry the onions until soft. Throw in the chicken and fry until the chicken changes colour.

2. Add the curry paste and the rice to the pan. Cook for a minute.

3. Add the chicken stock and bring to the boil. Once boiling reducing the heat and let it simmer. Cook for 10 minutes then add the frozen vegetables. Cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the frozen spinach and coriander, cook for another 5 minutes.

3. The liquid should have reduced and the rice would have cooked. Make sure while cooking this that you stir regularly otherwise it will stick to the pan. Season and serve.
