Ingrediënten

  • 2 –3 fresh mixed-colour chillies
  • 350 g ripe mixed-colour cherry tomatoes
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • 6 cm piece of ginger
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala
  • 4 heaped tablespoons natural yoghurt
  • 2 x 150g skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons smooth cashew butter

Instructies

  • Halve and deseed the chillies.
  • Place in a large non-stick frying pan on a high heat with the tomatoes and blacken all over, turning occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, peel the garlic and ginger, and finely grate into a large bowl.
  • Add most of the garam masala, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper and 1 tablespoon of yoghurt.
  • Deeply score the chicken breasts at 1cm intervals, then massage with the marinade.
  • Once charred, remove the tomatoes and chillies to a board, returning the pan to a medium heat with ½ a tablespoon of olive oil and the chicken.
  • Cook and char for 10 minutes, turning halfway, while you pinch off and discard the tomato skins and roughly chop 1–2 of the chillies, to taste.
  • Remove the gnarly chicken from the pan and go in with the tomatoes, chopped chillies and cashew butter.
  • Pour in 250ml of boiling kettle water and stir to pick up the sticky bits.
  • Let it bubble vigorously for 2 minutes and once it starts to thicken, return the chicken to the pan, turning in the sauce for a final 2 minutes, or until cooked through, then remove to a board.
  • Off the heat, season the sauce to perfection, then ripple through the remaining yoghurt.
  • Slice the chicken and serve with the remaining chilli and garam masala.
