    Meanwhile, warm the katsu sauce through in a small pan.

    Taste and adjust the seasoning.

  6. 6

    Serve the sliced katsu chicken over the rice, spooning the warmed curry sauce over the top.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 150 g chicken breast. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
