Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet

Ingredients

Spice Mix Packet

  • 2 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garam Masala
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Coriander
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon Cumin Seeds
  • ½ teaspoon Cayenne powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Cardamom

Curry:

  • 1 Small Onion chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 2 Small Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts Chopped
  • 13.5 oz Coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoon Soy Sauce Coconut Aminos, or Tamari
  • 1 lb Frozen Broccoli and Cauliflower or frozen vegetable mix of your choice.
  • Salt and pepper
  • Rice or Cauliflower Rice for Serving - Optional. We'll do this recipe as 4 servings if we're serving with rice, or just split the batch into 2 servings and have it by itself.

Instructions

Ahead of Time:

  • Mix the spice packet ingredients together, transfer to a small zip top plastic baggie. Push out excess air, seal.

To Make the Curry:

  • Get a medium-hot fire going. You don’t want it roaring, but you do want it to sustain a low boil for 20 minutes or so.
  • Note: If you’re cooking at home, set your burner to medium-high.
  • In a Dutch oven, saute the onion in the olive oil until the onion is translucent and tender.
  • Add the chopped chicken breasts, continue cooking until browned on all sides, and almost completely cooked through.
  • Add the coconut milk, soy sauce, and contents of the spice mix baggie, stir well to combine. Simmer until it starts to thicken, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the frozen veggies. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the veggies are heated through and cooked to a texture you like.
  • Serve hot, with rice or cauliflower rice... or not!

Notes

Leftovers: Once cooled to room temperature, leftovers can be transferred to an airtight container and stored in the fridge for up to 4 day. Best served reheated.
