Method
- Heat the oil in a pan over a low-medium heat and fry the onion for 5 mins. Increase the heat to high, stir through the garlic and peppers, and cook for 2 mins more.
- Add the chicken mince and cook for 5 mins. Stir through the chutney and half the fajita spice mix (or more if you prefer it spicier), then add the kidney beans and chopped tomatoes. Simmer for 10 mins, or until thickened.
- Meanwhile, cook the rice to pack instructions. Divide among plates, then spoon over the chilli. Top with yogurt and scatter with the spring onions to serve.
