Chicken Curry : Serve with Low Carb Cauliflower Rice


I always think a curry can be enjoyed mid-week, end of week, weekend, well perhaps any day of the week!

This easy recipe idea is for a nice tasting chicken curry, and uses a great mix of herbs and spices ... you may wish to give it a try!

Ingredients:
Serves Four
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp oil
2 cans of tomatoes, chopped
0.5 tsp sugar
3 cm piece root ginger, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 red chillies, de-seeded and finely chopped
1 x 400ml tin (reduced-fat) coconut milk
8 bone-in chicken thighs, skinless
juice of ½ lime
3 tbsp chopped coriander

Method:
1. Whizz the onion in a food processor with the coriander, cumin, turmeric and 100ml of water, until a paste is formed.
2. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan or shallow casserole, add the onion paste, tomatoes, sugar and a teaspoon of salt. Simmer together for 5 minutes, stirring.
3. Next, stir in the ginger, garlic, chopped chilli and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer, then add the chicken thighs. Cover and gently simmer for 15 minutes
4. Remove the lid, increase the heat and bubble for a further 5-10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Stir in the lime juice and coriander. 
5. Serve with (low carb) cauliflower rice, which you will obviously need to prepare/cook.

  1. I love curry but it's something I never make as no one else here will eat it so I only ever have it if I'm eating out.

  4. Thanks for such a delicious recipe.
    I wish my husband would eat curry. I never make it for myself for that reason.
    Thinking about it I may make a batch and freeze it in 'portions for one'
    Now that is a good idea.

  8. I've often wondered if I should try my lot with riced cauli but I'm just not brave enough to give it a go. All that work for it to be picked over and for the inquisition about it just seems like too much! They'd love the curry though.

  9. Sounds like a flavorful, pleasantly warm dish. Hubby is a light weight when it come to peppers, ginger, anything warm.

    We can only hope our tracks are good since people may follow.

    The Wheel bug is a great insect eater for the garden. We try to avoid them and let them dine. They do spit and will defend themselves if they feel threatened.

    Glad you enjoy my strange posts.

    Have a blessed weekend.

  16. I used to love curries, although I don't like coriander in any form, but I have Rosacea and can no longer eat chilies, so I would have to leave them out of every recipe. I may give this a try next winter.
