Instructions

1. Put the chicken in a bowl with all the peri peri seasonings and the Nando's sauce, leaving out the spray oil. Mix well.
2. Heat a pan over medium-high heat, spray with oil, and cook the chicken 2 ½ minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Add a little extra Nando's sauce at the end if you like. Rest, then slice into strips.
3. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Cook the onion and bell pepper for 3 minutes, stirring often. Add the garlic and tomato paste and cook 2 more minutes.
4. Add the washed basmati rice and toast for 1 minute, stirring to coat. Add the chicken stock, smoked paprika, turmeric, chilli powder and oregano. Stir, bring to a boil, then reduce to low, cover and cook 12 minutes.
5. Turn off the heat and keep the lid on for 4 minutes. Lift the lid, add the peas and coriander, and fluff with a fork.
6. Divide the rice among six meal prep containers. Top with the sliced chicken and extra sauce if using, and garnish with coriander.
