WHAT can be done with a BBQ chicken from the supermarket or hot chicken shop?
Today, Simon wants to use a pre-bought red curry paste to turn chicken into something magical, then adding it to the inside of a crunchy lettuce boat. You will need 1 good jar of Thai Red Curry Paste
Method:
Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a small saucepan on medium heat.
Toast off the 3 spoonfuls of Thai red Curry paste in the pan to awaken the flavours.
Scrape that off the pan and set it aside - you'll use it in a sec.
Then to the same pan add in a couple of spoons of Greek Yoghurt and a big squeeze of lime juice (3 tbs) plus 2tsp honey and a big pinch (1/2 tsp) of salt.
Add half a chopped red onion, a chopped celery stalk, 12 chopped cornichons and some coriander.
Add in 400g shredded leftover chicken. Add in the yoghurt-curry mixture and mix with a light touch.
Top everything with a handful of roasted peanuts and some coriander.
