Chicken and Chickpea Curry
Easy, one-skillet dinner that's ready in 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into cubes
- 1 tbsp olive oil, divided
- ½ yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 (15 oz) can fire roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 (14 oz) can coconut milk
- 1 (15 oz) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 (12 oz) bag frozen cauliflower
- 2 tbsp curry powder
- ½ tsp turmeric
- ¼ tsp ginger
- ½ tsp salt
- Pepper
- 3 oz spinach
Steps
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of oil and swirl to coat. Add the chicken and cook, 5-6 minutes, until almost cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the chicken to a clean plate and set aside.
- To the pan, add the remaining 1 teaspoon of oil to the skillet and swirl to coat. Add the onions and peppers and cook for 5 minutes or until the onions start to soften, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute or until fragrant.
- Add the cooked chicken back to the pan along with the tomatoes (and their juice), coconut milk, drained chickpeas, frozen cauliflower, curry powder, turmeric, ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring once or twice.
- Remove the lid from the skillet and add the spinach. Stir and allow the spinach to wilt, 2-3 minutes, then serve over steamed rice with chopped cilantro and lime wedges.
