Chicken & Veggie Coconut Curry

Natasha Pehrson Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • Veggies & protein of your choosing
  • 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 2 tsp. chopped garlic
  • 1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 tsp. curry powder
  • 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 cans of coconut milk *If you have lots of veggies, you may need 3 cans of coconut milk. If you use 3 cans, double all of the spices.
  • 1/2 lemon

Instructions

  • Begin by selecting your favorite vegetables and protein sources. Chop the veggies and prepare your protein (chicken, tofu, or any other protein of your choice).
  • In a large pan, heat half of the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add your chosen veggies and season them with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon juice. Sauté them until they're tender and set them aside.
  • In the same pan, add the remaining coconut oil along with the chopped garlic, fresh rosemary, 1 teaspoon of curry powder, and brown sugar. You can add a few tablespoons of water to help combine these ingredients into a fragrant paste.
  • Add your protein of choice to the spice mix. Sprinkle some salt and cayenne pepper over it, and cook until it's thoroughly cooked through.
  • Once your protein is cooked to perfection, reintroduce the sautéed veggies back into the pan. Mix everything together to create a harmonious blend of flavors.
  • Pour in the two cans of coconut milk (or three if you're going all out with the veggies) and add the remaining curry powder. Mix everything thoroughly and allow the curry to simmer for 10-15 minutes.
