Coconut-curry chicken

Serves 230 min800 kcal / serving

Gentle coconut curry with turmeric and ginger over taro.

Ingredients
  • Chicken thighs — 11¾ oz (3, cubed)
  • Full-fat coconut milk — 1 cup
  • Curry powder (nightshade-free) — 1 tsp
  • Turmeric — 1 tsp
  • Ginger — 1 tsp
  • Zucchini — 3½ oz (½)
  • Green beans — 3 oz (handful)
  • Taro — 2 oz (cubed)
  • Green-onion tops — 2 Tbsp
  • Garlic-infused olive oil — 2 Tbsp
  • Sea salt
  • Lime
Method
  1. Brown the chicken in the oil over medium-high; remove.
  2. Bloom the curry powder, turmeric and ginger in the oil 30–60 seconds.
  3. Add the coconut milk (stir gently so it doesn't split), taro and beans; return the chicken and simmer gently 12–15 minutes.
  4. Add the zucchini for the last 5 minutes; finish with green-onion tops, lime and salt.
Notes

The 'no onion/garlic' Thai curry approach works because the spices (turmeric, ginger, curry powder, lime) are doing the heavy lifting. Use a nightshade-free curry powder — many commercial blends sneak in chili powder or paprika.
