I’ve taken the plunge (again) at following the Slimming World [Extra Easy] plan. It’s a diet plan that I know very well, and one that I hope will help my weight issues – I’m going to go into all of that in another post. In this post, however, I just want to concentrate on the chicken curry traybake recipe, which is from the Slimming World magazine. I have to ease myself back into cooking for my family as a whole, rather than us all having different meals at different times which we have been doing for so, so long. I thought a traybake recipe would be the way to go!

Chicken Curry Tray Bake - Slimming World Extra Easy

Curry is one of those family meals that we all enjoy, and this one is very simple to make. It can also be prepped in advance, and stored in the freezer, and the recipe was from a series of batch cooking recipes in the magazine – several of which I’d like to try out.

Since the recipe calls for chillies and curry powder, adjust this to your chilli tolerance levels. We actually used madras curry powder instead of a mild one, put in a few extra chillies, and extra cumin. If you can’t find roasted red peppers in brine in your supermarket, you could just chop fresh peppers instead and add them to the tray bake. Or, if you have the time, char whole peppers under the grill, place into a plastic food bag for a few minutes and peel the skin off.

We served the chicken curry with boiled rice – although you could try out my lemon turmeric rice (remember to count the Syns if you’re on Slimming World for the drizzle of olive oil in that recipe) as a tasty alternative to plain rice. The curry was full of flavour – especially the vegetables, which got most of the marinade. I think if I were to make this again, I would make a bit extra marinade and marinate the chicken for a few hours in advance to work all the flavour into the meat. You could also make a vegetarian alternative using extra, and different vegetables – aubergines, mushroom, and squash would work well.
