How to make Pumpkin Butter Chicken

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C or gas mark 4.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan large enough to hold the chicken in one layer. Add the chicken and brown it on both sides. Transfer to a casserole dish.
  3. Melt the butter in the pan. When it stops foaming, add the onions and then sauté until pale gold.
  4. Add the mushrooms and pumpkin pieces to the onion and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Add Shemins Indian Curry Paste and cook for 2 minutes.
  5. Stir in the cream, stock and season if you wish. Simmer uncovered for 4-5 minutes until reduced slightly, then pour over the chicken.
  6. Cover and cook in the oven for 30-40 minutes until both the chicken and pumpkin are cooked.
  7. Stir in lemon juice and serve with rice and Shemin’s Indian Breads.
