Chilli Chicken Peanut Pies Recipes

SPICY PEANUT CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine curry powder, Thai chili garlic sauce, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and soy sauce in a small bowl, and set aside. Fill a saucepan with water, and bring it to a boil. When the water is boiling, drop in the spaghetti and cook for 8 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Drain the spaghetti, and set aside.
• Heat peanut oil in a skillet or wok over medium-high heat until barely smoking, and drop in the chicken. Cook and stir 5 to 8 minutes, until the chicken is just beginning to brown and the inside is no longer pink. Remove chicken from the skillet, and set aside.
• Make the peanut sauce by stirring together peanut butter and 3 1/2 cups of water in a saucepan over medium heat until mixture is smooth and the peanut butter is melted. Pour in the curry-chili sauce, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes.
• To serve, place the noodles in a large bowl, top with chicken, and spoon the peanut sauce over the chicken. Sprinkle the green onions over the dish, and garnish with chow mein noodles.

EASY CHICKEN SATAY WITH PEANUT CHILLI SAUCE

Steps:

• Begin by soaking 8 wooden skewers in water for half an hour. This will prevent them from burning when cooking.
• Place the sliced chicken breast in a large bowl with the rest of the chicken skewer ingredients. Mix together using your hands and massage the sauce into the chicken for a minute. Cover and place in the fridge to marinate for at least 30 mins (up to overnight).
• Whilst the meat is marinating, place all of the satay sauce ingredients EXCEPT for the lime juice into a small pan.
• Heat over medium heat whilst stirring with a wooden spoon. The sauce will look thin at first, then as it comes close to boiling point, it will start to thicken. Don't let the sauce boil, just turn down the heat as it approaches boiling point and stir until thickened, then turn off the heat and stir in the lime juice.* Note 1
• Take the skewers out of the water and give them a shake to remove excess water, then thread the chicken strips onto the skewers, and place the skewers on a plate.
• Brush a little oil on the griddle (or BBQ), then heat until smoking. Place the skewers on the griddle and cook for 8-10 minutes until golden brown - turning a couple of times during cooking (you could grill/broil the skewers if you prefer). Cut into the thickest part of one of the pieces of chicken to check it's cooked. There should be no pinkness to the chicken.
• Place the skewers on plates, then reheat the satay sauce if you like it hot. Serve in a bowl with the skewers. Top with fresh coriander (cilantro) and a few slices of red chilli. If you like lots of toppings, you can also top with chilli flakes, a little red onion, a few chopped peanuts and some sesame seeds.

THAI PEANUT CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook in batches, if necessary, until nicely browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
• At the same time, heat a small amount of water to boiling in a small saucepan. Add carrots and boil until just starting to get tender, about 2 minutes. Drain.
• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; stir in onion, white parts of scallions, garlic, and ginger. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine coconut milk, peanut butter, 1/4 cup water, Sriracha, lime juice, and salt in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring often, until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth.
• Add cooked chicken, carrots, and peanut sauce to the onion mixture. Stir in beans, scallion greens, and basil until well mixed.
• Simmer over low heat, stirring often, until well blended and heated through, 30 to 40 minutes. The sauce should be a little thin as it cooks; if not, add water until desired consistency.

CHILLI CHICKEN & PEANUT PIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the potatoes in a steamer for 15 mins until tender. Meanwhile, start the chicken filling. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan, add the ginger and chilli, and stir over a medium heat until starting to soften. Stir in the dried spices, leeks and peppers. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened.
• Add the chicken and stir-fry until it begins to colour, then tip in the tomatoes, squeeze in some tomato purée and add the bouillon and 150ml water. Cover and simmer for 10 mins.
• Mix the peanut butter with 100ml water, then stir into the stew and cook for 5 mins more. Spoon the mixture equally into two 24 x 18cm shallow pie dishes.
• For the mash, tip the beans into a bowl, add the coriander and chilli powder and mash well. Add the steamed potatoes and roughly mash into the beans so it still has a little texture. Pile on top of the filling in the pie dishes and carefully spread over the filling to enclose it. Bake one of the pies for 35 mins.
• Meanwhile, cook half of the broccoli and serve with the pie. Chill the other pie with the remaining broccoli for another day. Will keep chilled for up to three days. Reheat the remaining pie as above, adding an extra 15 mins to the cooking time.
