Serving ideas

Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad to balance the peppery heat. It also pairs well with rice or crusty bread to soak up any delicious sauce.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the chicken, either in a microwave or on low heat in a pan.
