Istruzioni

In a frying pan, heat vegetable oil and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Brown the diced chicken breast until golden. Move the chicken to one side, and melt the rest of the butter.

Add the garlic and ginger, and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add all of the spices, and the salt, stir and cook for a minute then add the passata.

Give everything a mix, cover with a lid and simmer on medium heat for 5-10 minutes for the chicken to cook and the flavors to settle.

Carefully open the lid, and stir in the cream, and allow the sauce to reduce a little. Serve warm over rice with chopped parsley, mint, or cilantro.
