Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Cut the chicken into cubes. Slice the peppers and onion into chunks. Finely chop the garlic and ginger, slice the chilli and rinse the rice.

  2. 2

    Marinate the chicken

    Mix peanut butter, smoked paprika, curry powder, thyme, garlic, ginger, chilli, lime juice, cooking oil, salt and black pepper. Coat the chicken and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Thread and cook the skewers

    Thread chicken, peppers and onion onto skewers. Grill over medium-high heat for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred.

  4. 4

    Cook the coconut rice

    Heat a little oil, stir in the rice for 1 minute, then add coconut milk and chicken stock. Cover and simmer for 12–15 minutes until tender.

  5. 5

    Fry the aromatics and vegetables

    Cook onion with garlic, ginger and chilli, then add peas and diced pepper and stir-fry until just tender.

  6. 6

    Combine and serve

    Fluff the rice and add it to the vegetables with soy sauce. Serve with the chicken skewers and finish with coriander, toasted coconut flakes and lime wedges.
