JD - I had an hour to whip up something for my DD for lunch today so thought of this recipe farfallina.  Only had 306g chicken fillet but it was enough for 4 people with rice.  Because I like a lot of sauce, I used the other quantities but only a tiny pinch of dried chillies and 1 tspn curry powder & thickened it with 2 tblspns cornflour/water. It was lovely.  Whilst the chicken was marinating I cooked the rice and was finished well in time for her arrival. Will post a picture later. Thank you for the recipe - I will probably use chicken thighs next time as it is my preferred cut of chicken for curries. I only cooked the chicken for 9 minutes all up (being breast meat) but would stick to the longer cooking times for thighs.

I've been having trouble posting the photo I took of the lunch meal so this is one of the leftovers for DH's tea.  I just remembered also that I only cooked the chicken for 9 minutes all up (being breast meat) but would stick to the longer cooking times for thighs.
