Method

1. Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl and mix with the ginger, garlic, chilli, salt, pepper, coriander, limejuice and one tablespoon of the oil. Set aside.

2. Heat a heavy bottomed saucepan and add the chicken. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is brown on all sides.

3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan and cook the onion and chilli for five to six minutes until golden brown. Add the turmeric and cook for one minute. Stir in the cream and cook gently for a couple of minutes.

4. Add the chicken to the creamy sauce. Simmer for five minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Check the seasoning, adding lemon juice to taste. Garnish with a little extra chopped coriander and serve immediately with rice and naan bread.
