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 and Grape Curry

Discover the unexpected magic of grapes in a curry with this sweet and creamy Chicken and Grape Curry. The addition of grapes adds a burst of natural sweetness that balances beautifully with the rich coconut milk and works very well with our Chilli Free Curry Paste.

This curry brings a refreshing twist to your mealtime, delivering delicious flavours everyone will love!

Total Cooking Time (Including Prep): About 35 minutes

Calories per Serving: Approx 480

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 800g chicken breast or thighs, diced
  • 100g Shemin’s Chilli-Free Curry Paste (or any heat Indian paste)
  • 200g tinned chopped tomatoes
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 350g fresh or tinned grapes, drained
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander, for garnish (optional)
  • Cooked rice or Shemin’s Indian Breads

Method

  1. Cook the onion:
    Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for 4–5 minutes until soft and translucent.
  2. Cook the chicken:
    Add the diced chicken to the pan and cook for 5–7 minutes until browned on all sides.
  3. Add the curry paste:
    Stir in 100g of Shemin’s Indian Curry Paste with a splash of water. Cook for 1 minute to release the flavours of the paste.
  4. Add the tomatoes:
    Stir in the chopped tomatoes and let it simmer for 4–5 minutes until the tomatoes begin to break down.
  5. Add coconut milk:
    Pour in the coconut milk and stir everything together. Let the curry simmer gently for 10–12 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked through.
  6. Add the grapes:
    Stir in the fresh or tinned grapes and let the curry simmer for an additional 2–3 minutes to heat them through.
  7. Season and garnish:
    Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt. Garnish with fresh coriander, if desired.
  8. Serve:
    Serve the curry hot with steamed rice and Shemin’s Indian Breads.

Tips:

  1. Use Seedless Grapes: If using fresh grapes, opt for seedless varieties to avoid any unwelcome surprises while eating. Red or green grapes both work, depending on your preference for sweetness. If you prefer a less sweet curry, reduce the amount of grapes or use green grapes, which tend to be less sweet than red ones.
  2. Make It Vegetarian: Swap the chicken for paneer or tofu for a delicious vegetarian version. Both will absorb the flavours beautifully, and the grapes will still provide a lovely contrast.
  3. Try Different Pastes: For a twist, you can use our Massaman or Goan Curry Paste in this recipe. Both offer unique flavours that pair beautifully with the sweetness of the grapes.
  4. Storage: This curry keeps well in the fridge for up to 2 days, making it great for meal prepping. Simply reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of water if needed to loosen the sauce.
  5. Add a Crunch: For extra texture, sprinkle some toasted cashews or almonds on top when serving.
