How to

  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C. 
  2. Heat an oven-proof dish or casserole pan on the stovetop (medium-high heat) and add one tablespoon of olive oil and one tablespoon of butter. Fry the onion gently for about 10 minutes.
  3. Add the chicken and fry for 5 to 7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Season well.
  4. Pour in the Pesto Princess Butter Chicken Curry Sauce and simmer, uncovered, for a few minutes. When it has heated through, add the cream.
