Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams Boneless Chicken Leg and Thigh Meat Skin on if possible
  • 50 ml Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 5 grams garlic
  • 1 Tsp Curry Powder I recommend this
  • 1 Spring Onion
  • 30 grams Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 Tbsp Avocado Oil I recommend this
  • 250 grams Green Beans
  • 1 Tbsp Butter I recommend this
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • Water as needed

Instructions
 

  • Season the skin side of the chicken with salt and set aside for 15 minutes. This draws out some of the moisture from the skin making it super crispy. Also prep your green beans by chopping off the ends and cutting into halves. Prep the spring onion by cutting the white part, the middle part and the green part and keep them separately.
  • Heat the butter in a non stick skillet and once melted add in the green beans, season with salt and add some water.
  • Cover and cook with the lid on a medium heat for about 5 minutes or the beans are cooked to your liking. Once done set them aside and get on to cooking the chicken.
  • Heat the avocado oil in a pan and once it's smoking hot add the chicken in skin side down. Season the flesh side with salt and pepper and let it cook for 5 minutes on a medium-high heat without touching to ensure a delicious crispy skin.
  • Once done flip it over and cook for another 3-4 minutes and then set it aside to rest.
  • In the same pan now add the white part of the spring onion and the garlic and cook till the garlic starts to turn golden brown. Then add in the curry power and cook for 60 seconds.
  • Your chicken should have had some resting juices by now so pour that along with about 50ml of water and deglaze the pan. Add in the heavy whipping cream and grate the cheese in as well.
  • Now cook this down till it's to the thickness or your liking, Taste for seasoning and add in the middle part of the spring onion.
  • Serve the chicken with the curry sauce and green beans and finish with the green part of the spring onion. Ideally just throw that into the sauce as well.
  • This recipe makes about 2 servings. So half the sauce plus half the chicken and half the beans is 1 full meal. So this is basically 2 dinners.
