Shemin’s Indian Curry Paste

Our multi-award winning paste will be your new secret when it comes to Indian cooking. 

Ingredients

  • 2 peppers, cut into wedges
  • 2 potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 700g chicken thigh fillets
  • 1 pot (100g) Shemin’s Tikka Paste
  • 150g natural yoghurt or 400g coconut milk (alternative option)
  • 100g broccoli
  • A handful of cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red chilli, sliced (optional)
  • 1–2 tbsp oil (olive or vegetable)
  • Pinch of salt (optional)
  • Knob of butter (to finish)

How to make Chicken Tikka Traybake

Prepare the tray

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the peppers, potatoes and cherry tomatoes into a large, shallow roasting tray.

Make the marinade

In a small bowl, mix the Shemin’s Tikka Paste with the yoghurt (or coconut milk if using). Pour half of the marinade over the vegetables, add the oil and a pinch of salt (if using), then toss to coat.

Step 3

Coat the chicken thighs in the remaining marinade. Do the same with the broccoli, then set the broccoli aside.

Step 4

Lay the marinated chicken on top of the vegetables, making sure everything is in a single layer. Roast for 30 minutes.

Step 5

Add the broccoli to the tray and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes. Check the chicken is cooked through — it should be piping hot with no pink in the centre.

Step 6

Remove the tray from the oven and add a knob of butter, allowing it to melt into the sauce for extra richness. Scatter over the sliced red chilli (if using) and serve straight from the tray.

Tips

  • Don’t overcrowd the tray – Make sure everything sits in a single layer so the vegetables roast rather than steam.
  • Chicken thighs work best – They stay juicy at high heat and take on the marinade beautifully.
  • More flavour? You can marinate the chicken up to 24 hours ahead for even deeper flavour.
  • Use what you’ve got – Courgettes, red onion, cauliflower or leftover roast potatoes all work well in this traybake.

Chicken with Thai Curry Satay Sauce

We just LOVE this sauce! Creamy in texture and unbelievably moreish. Great for this dish and we also used it as a dipping sauce at our BBQ, went down very well – it’s one of the best.

Ingredients

  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded to 1/2 inch thick (can also use chicken thighs)
  • 130g smooth natural peanut butter (without added sugar) at room temperature
  • 25ml rice vinegar (not “seasoned” vinegar)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp palm sugar or sweetener of your choice
  • 100g Shemin’s Thai Red Curry Paste or to taste (can also use Thai Green)
  • 5 tbsp stock, chicken or vegetable
  • fresh ground black pepper to taste and salt
  • about 2 tbsp Peanut oil (depends on your pan)
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp chopped coriander, plus more for garnish, if desired
  • 2 tbsp chopped peanuts, plus more for garnish, if desired
  • chopped chilllies for garnish, if desired

Method

  1. Trim chicken breasts so they are about the same size and remove any visible fat or ragged edges. Put each chicken breast inside plastic bag or between plastic wrap and use a meat mallet to pound to even 1cm, 1/2 inch thickness or get your butcher to do it for you.
  2. In a food processor combine the peanut butter, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, Shemin’s Thai Red Curry Paste, and stock.
  3. Heat the oil in a heavy, large frying pan. Season chicken with salt and black pepper, then add the chicken to the pan and sauté over a medium heat until chicken breasts are nicely browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes on first side, and 3-4 minutes on the second side.  You can also cook the chicken on the BBQ. (It’s important to thoroughly cook but not to overcook the chicken; it should feel barely firm to the touch when you take it out of the pan.)
  4. Remove the chicken to a plate and cover with foil. Reduce the heat to low and add the coconut milk. Scrape off the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, then stir in the peanut/curry paste mixture and heat through, for about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Add any juices that have accumulated on the plate and cook for another minute or two. Turn off the heat and mix in the chopped coriander. Serve the sauce immediately over chicken breasts, with additional chopped peanuts and chopped chillies for garnish if you like.

Tips:

  1. If you find our Thai Curry Paste a little too hot, try putting less paste or more coconut milk or add coconut cream too.
Serves 4-6
