  • Easter and Spring are the the perfect time to discover Powerscourt when the Estate and gardens are starting to bloom. Don’t miss the opportunity to see 30,000 tulips and Spring bulbs in bloom at this year’s Annual Tulip Festival. At the Japanese Garden you can breathe in an array of exotic fragrances from sweet magnolia flowers, perfumed azaleas and cherry and apple blossom trees, bearing cascades of pink and white flowers. The Camellias in the Memorial Garden and the thousands of daffodils throughout the gardens and Estate bring Spring cheer after the long winter months.

    We hope to see you up on the Estate this Easter enjoying the Spring blooms in the gardens.

    Ingredients (Serves 4)
    2 Tbsp. Simply Better Thai Yellow Curry Paste
    1 Can Simply Better Thai Coconut Milk
    4 pieces Simply Better Palm Sugar
    2 packets Simply Better Irish Corn Fed Chicken Thigh Fillets, trimmed
    1 Jar Simply Better Double Roasted Smooth Peanut Butter
    2 Tbsp. Simply Better Irish Made Soy & Ginger Sauce
    2 Tbsp. Simply Better Irish Made Sweet Chilli Sauce
    2 Limes, 1 juiced & 1 cut into wedges
    2 packets Simply Better Irish Corn Fed Chicken Thighs
    1 Simply Better Irish Red Chilli, cut into rings
    Handful Fresh Coriander leaves
    Simply Better Organic Thai Jasmine Rice, to serve

    Method
    Put the curry paste in a shallow dish with half of the coconut milk and crumble in two pieces of the palm sugar. Mix with a fork to form a smooth paste, then add the chicken and mix well to combine. Cover with cling film and leave to marinate for at least 1 hour, although the longer the better. Remove from the fridge about 20 minutes before you plan to cook it.

    To make the peanut-coconut sauce, add the peanut butter with the soy & ginger sauce, sweet chilli sauce, lime juice, the remaining palm sugar and coconut milk to a saucepan and stir over a gentle heat to make a smooth sauce. Transfer to a bowl and set aside until needed.

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6). Arrange the chicken on a baking tray and bake for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the oven and arrange on a platter, then scatter over the fresh chilli and coriander. Tuck in the lime wedges and serve straight to the table with the rice and peanut-coconut sauce for dipping.

    NEVEN’S TOP TIP

    To make this an easy family tray bake, add a packet of baby potatoes that you’ve halved and tossed in a little oil to the chicken before roasting.
