Total cooking and preparation time approximately 15 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients

2 tbsp vegetable oil
4 chicken breast fillets
1 small or ½ large onion, halved and sliced
2 tsp garlic, crushed
2 tsp ginger, finely chopped

For the sauce:
½ pint single cream

Method

1. Press down firmly on the chicken breasts with the palm of your hand until they are about half the original thickness.
2. Heat the oil in a very hot frying pan, until it starts to smoke, and fry the chicken, onions, garlic and ginger for about 5 minutes until the chicken has browned and the onions have softened.
3. Mix the sauce ingredients together in a jug or bowl, add to the frying pan and toss the chicken until well coated.
4. Cook for about another 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked all the way through.
5. Serve with basmati rice and poppadums.
