Bowl Chicken Peanut Rice

Peanut Chicken Bowl

This Peanut Chicken Bowl weeknight dinner that I have made countless time recently! The best part about this recipe is that it is ready in under 30 minutes, but packs so much flavour. Chicken thighs coated in curry powder then seared to lock in flavour, baked with a delicious, rich and creamy peanut sauce. Served as a rice bowl with pickled onions and crunchy veg.
