2. Cut the chicken fillet into cubes. If using onion, peel and chop it. Do the same with the chili. The heat is in the seeds, so you can remove the seeds if desired. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the onion until translucent, then add the chopped chili and cook for another minute. Add the chicken to the onion and chili, cook for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper, add basil, and pour in the tomato paste. Reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and simmer for about 10 minutes.
