Pre-Cooked Chicken
« on: June 08, 2012, 12:06 PM »
I've made 2kg of pre-cooked chicken today having marinated for 24 hours in the fridge.

6 tsp spice mix (see below)
3 tsp garlic puree
3 tsp ginger puree
2 tsp salt
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp paprika
3 tbsp rapeseed oil
6 tbsp water

Chop up the chicken, mix with the above ingredients, I put in a freezer bag and seal then pop it in the fridge for 24 hours.

Pre-heat an oven to 180 C then place chicken on a baking tray and cook for 20 minutes.

Spice mix
8 parts ground coriander
7 parts turmeric
5 parts ground cumin
4 parts curry powder (I use Rajah Madras mild)
2 parts fenugreek leaves (methi) finely rubbed
1 part garlic powder
1 part ginger powder
1 part onion powder

I used tbsp which makes a pot full which I also use for my curries.

This isn't fair! I haven't even had lunch yet and you're torturing me with that succulent trayful of chicken!

Looks very good indeed! :)

And I've got to ruin it by cooking it all in a Korma for the girlies for my grandson's 1st birthday party next week!! :(

Just waiting for it to cool sufficiently to bag up and throw in the freezer.

I've also got a 2kg bag of Chicken Tikka marinating in the fridge as well but I like to marinate that for 48 hours then throw on the BBQ for that wonderful smokey taste :)

I am shamed by my inaction. Your hard work in the kitchen has forced me to extract 4 bags of chicken breast from the freezer to defrost for tomorrow's (hitherto unplanned) marinating-fest!

I've had so much curry this week, I've ran out of pre-cooked chicken (although I DO have some king prawns!).  ::)

Well the 2 kg of Chicken Tikka has been marinating for 48 hours, so it was time to stick it all on the BBQ. All I have to do now next week for the party is make the Korma Sauce and the Garlic Chili Masala sauce :)

Looks fantastic! I've just started marinating 3kg of chicken breast, so I won't be too far behind you. :)
