Equipment

  • All-Clad Saute Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 medium red bell pepper diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger finely grated or 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons garam masala
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • kosher salt to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 can (13.5 ounces) full-fat coconut milk
  • 4 cups cooked rice
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oil in a large sauté pan on medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and stir for another minute.
  • Add the chicken to the pan along with the curry powder, garam masala, ground coriander, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, stirring frequently.
  • Add the coconut milk and lime juice. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add a portion of rice to a bowl and top with several spoonfuls of curry chicken. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

Leftovers will keep in the fridge for 4 to 5 days. I’d store the curry and rice separately to keep the rice fresh and fluffy. For longer storage, this curry can be frozen for up to 3 months in freezer-safe containers. Optional side dishes include garlic ginger bok choy. To make low-carb, just use cauliflower rice.
