1 tbsp groundnut oil

Method

Heat the oil in a large wok over a medium-high heat, then add the chicken and cook until browned.
Pour in the stir-fry sauce and bring to a simmer, then cook gently for 7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Stir in the fish sauce, lime juice and half the zest, then simmer for another 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the rice according to the packet instructions. Serve the curry and rice in deep bowls, garnished with the remaining zest, the chopped chilli and the coriander leaves.
