Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/ gas mark 6. Toss chicken in the spices. Melt half the butter in a deep frying pan and fry chicken until lightly browned.

Step 2

Remove chicken from the pan and add the remaining butter. Add bread cubes and toss in spicy butter until well coated, spread on a baking sheet and bake for about 8 mins until crisp and golden.

Step 3

Return chicken to the pan with flour and stir well. Add cream, water, spring onions, 2 strips of pared rind from the lemon, the lemon juice, peanut butter and fresh coriander.

Step 4

Season with freshly ground black pepper and stir well. Cook for 30 mins, adjusting consistency if necessary.

Step 5

Place in a warm serving dish and sprinkle over the spicy cubes.
