DIRECTIONS

Heat the oil in a large pan, and fry the onion and garlic for a couple of minutes.
Add the diced chicken and capsicum and cook for a further 4 minutes or until all the chicken has changed colour.
Add spices and stock powder and cook for 1 minute.
Add the remaining ingredients, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for another 15 minutes Serve over steamed rice.
I like to serve grated cheese, sour cream and gaucomale so people can add them themselves.
