A couple of years ago (pre-diet times) we bought some sauce with the same name and we really liked it. Recently Z brought it up again and I didn’t even try to look for this sauce on the shop’s shelves, as these canned sauces are always stuffed with sugar and starches (lots of carbs). Well, at least the ones I know around here. And I would also need it to be gluten- and dairy-free. Then I thought, it’s just a simple chicken dish, definitely not rocket sience…
Ingredients for 4 servings:
approx. 650g chicken breast
1 red onion
2 ripe tomatoes
1 teaspoon of curry powder
50g rasped coconut/coconut flakes
approx. 300 ml coconut milk (store bought or home made)
coconut oil
salt
220g brown rice
- Start by rinsing the brown rice and start boiling it in salty water approx. 1.5x its volume.
- Clean and dice the chicken breast and add some salt.
- Heat coconut oil in a pan and fry the chicken breast cubes until golden brown, remove from the pan and set aside.
- Dice the onion and tomatoes. Add some more coconut oil to the pan and fry the onion cubes over medium heat until translucent. Add the diced tomatoes, coconut flakes and curry powder.
- Once the sauce starts to thicken, add the chicken cubes back to the pan, mix well and pour in coconut milk until the desired consistency is reached. Boil once and ready to serve!
I turn to this very simple yet tasty recipe whenever I need to cook a quick, gluten- and dairy free meal that contains approx. 50g carbs/serving.
