Ingredients

Chicken Schnitzels
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 eggs
  • ⅓ cup plain flour
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs/panko crumbs
  • Salt and pepper
  • Oil of choice for frying
Katsu Curry
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 5-6 chat potatoes (peeled & cubed)
  • 1 large carrot (peeled & cubed)
  • 1 packet S&B golden curry mix 90g (mild or medium)
  • 800mL boiling water
  • Cooked rice to serve

Instructions

Chicken Schnitzels
  1. Cut the chicken in half horizontally to make even sized cutlets. Prepare your crumbing stations. Season flour and breadcrumbs with salt and pepper.
  2. Dip each piece of chicken into the flour, egg and then the breadcrumbs. Set aside.
  3. Heat a shallow frying pan with 1cm oil to cook the chicken. Cook each side of the chicken for 3-5 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
  4. Set aside whilst you prepare the curry.
Kasu Curry
  1. Heat a pot over medium heat. Spray lightly with oil and cook onions 5 mins or until softened.
  2. Add the potatoes and carrots. Cook for approximately 5 minutes. Add a splash of water to help with the cooking process. This water will help the vegetables not stick to the pot.
  3. Pour in the boiling water and bring to the boil. Stir occasionally for 5-10 minutes.
  4. Add the curry cubes. Stir occasionally and cook with the lid on for 5-10 minutes or until the curry is smooth and thick. Ensure the curry cubes are fully dissolved.
  5. Slice the crispy chicken schnitzels.
  6. To serve, spoon the rice on one side of the bowl, the curry on the other side and place the chicken on top in the middle of the curry and rice.
