Instructions
- 1Finely slice a quarter of the chilli, then put the rest in a food processor with the ginger, garlic, coriander stalks and one-third of the leaves. Whizz to a rough paste with a splash of water if needed.
- 2Heat the oil in a frying pan, then quickly brown the chicken chunks for 1 min. Stir in the paste for another min, then add the peanut butter, stock and yogurt. When the sauce is gently bubbling, cook for 10 mins until the chicken is just cooked through and sauce thickened. Stir in most of the remaining coriander, then scatter the rest on top with the chilli, if using. Eat with rice or mashed sweet potato.

Chef tips
For a silky-smooth, lump-free sauce, try mixing the peanut butter with a little of the warm liquid (water or coconut milk) in a separate bowl before adding it to the pot with the chicken. For a special family meal, serve the chicken over white rice or rice noodles, and add steamed broccoli florets to soak up all that delicious, rich sauce.
