Marry me chicken

Marry me chicken

This was yet another trend that I was late to, and I was reluctant to try, but it was actually so so so good, and pretty similar to stuff I’ve made in the past.

I actually used firm tofu in place of chicken for this, and it was DELIGHTful. A very good & quick little week night tea.

Method

  1. First, prepare the tofu - break into bitesize chunks & place in a bowl, or cut your chicken into chunks.
  2. Add your yoghurt, tomato puree, vinegar & salt, then set aside.
  3. For your sauce, finely slice your sundried tomatoes & garlic, then add 1 tbsp of oil to your deep frying pan on medium - low heat, adding your garlic and sundried tomatoes once hot, allowing them to fry.
  4. Once the oil has gained a red tint, add a couple of tbsp of yoghurt to the pan, along with your stock dissolved in water.
  5. Add 1 tbsp tomato puree, season with salt and pepper, then leave to simmer on low heat.
  6. To a separate frying pan, add 1 tbsp of olive oil on medium heat. Once hot, add your marinated tofu/ chicken, frying on each side until browned, or until your chicken is fully cooked - allow some bits to blacken too - this is just the tomatoes caramelising.
  7. Once your tofu/ chicken is cooked on all sides, add to your sauce - if your sauce is too thick, add a splash more water.
  8. Allow your sauce & protein to cook together for a couple of minutes, then prepare your bread to serve - we just fried ours in a pan with 1 tsp of butter.
  9. Season your sauce, then add to your serving bowl.
  10. Top with a drizzle of olive oil, fresh herbs & serve with your sourdough.
