Jeera Chicken
- 1 pound chicken breast fillets skinned
- 3 1/2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon cumin seeds
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 5/8 cup chicken stock or water
- salt to taste
- Cut the chicken into small chunks, about 2cm square.
- Heat the butter in a karahi or wok to quite a high heat. Add the cumin seeds and stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Add the ground cumin and continue to stir-fry for a further 30 seconds, then add 3-4tbsp stock or water and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes more.
- Add the chicken and stir-fry briskly for about 2 minutes, then lower the heat a little and, over the next 5 minutes, add the remaining stock or water, stirring as necessary.
- To finish off, turn up the heat and resume brisk stir-frying for about 5 minutes to reduce the remaining liquid to a dryish gravy and coating.
- Check that the chicken is cooked by cutting a piece in half - it should be white right through. If it isn't, continue stir-frying until it's ready.
- Add salt to taste and serve with chutneys.
