GOLDEN Chicken
Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken until golden but not cooked through, 30-60 seconds per side. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
ONIONS & Carrot
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). When hot, fry the diced Onion & Carrot until slightly softened, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally).
BETTER TOGETHER
When the Onion & Carrot are slightly softened, add the NOMU rub to the pan and fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes (shifting constantly). Pour in the tomato passata and 100ml of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until slightly reduced, 10-12 minutes. In the final 2-3 minutes, add the peas and the golden Chicken. Loosen with a splash of water if the sauce is too thick for your liking. Season and add a sweetener.
TOASTED ROTIS
Place a clean pan over medium heat. When hot, toast each roti until warmed through, 30-60 seconds per side. Alternatively, spread them out on a plate in a single layer and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds.
