Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add basmati rice, water (for the rice) and a pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, finely chop onion. Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and toss to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. • Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook prawns, tossing, until pink and starting to curl up, 3-4 minutes.Transfer to a bowl.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion and carrot, tossing, until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add Moroccan curry paste, water (for the sauce), coconut milk and chicken-style stock powder and simmer until the sauce has slightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.
• Return chicken and prawns to the pan, then add baby spinach and cook, stirring, until wilted and combined, 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
