Cooking time 45 minutes

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 Tbsp of coconut oil

3-4 tsp of Golden Gut Turmeric Spice Blend (GGTSB)

1 red onion

Half a cup of snow peas or brussel sprouts

1 red capscicum

2 carrots

Half a large sweet potato or a quarter of pumpkin

1.5 to 2 cans of coconut cream

2 cups of quinoa or brown rice

Pink Himalayan salt

500 grams of chicken breast or thigh fillet

Utensils

Sharp knife

2 Chopping boards

1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon

1 wooden spoon

1 medium size saucepan

1 large deep fry pan or a wok works fine

Method

1. Using a spumpharp knife and one of the chopping boards, thinly slice your chicken into small strips and set aside ready to be cooked at a later stage.

2. Using the second chopping board, slice and dice the red onion, snow peas/brussel sprouts, capsicum, carrots and sweet potato/kin then set aside ready to be cooked at a later stage.

3. Rinse quinoa/brown rice then cook in a medium size saucepan in water according to packet instructions.

4. Whilst the quinoa/brown rice is cooking, in a large deep fry pan heat on a medium temperature heat 1 Tbsp of coconut oil and 3-4 tsp of GGTSB until you can start to smell the spice aromas, add red onion and cook until it starts to brown. Then add coconut cream, stir until well combined with spice mix and onion and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes. At this stage you should have a golden creamy coconut curry base bubbling away in your pan.

5. Now add your raw sliced chicken to the coconut curry base, stir through with a wooden spoon, then put a lid on the pan and let simmer, allowing the chicken to cook through in the coconut curry base (approx. 10 mins).

6. Remove the lid on the pan, add the snow peas/brussel sprouts, capsicum, carrots and sweet potato/pumpkin and stir into the mixture. At this stage add pink Himalayan salt to taste.Replace the lid on the pan and allow to simmer for a further 10 minutes or until the veggies are cooked through.

7. Once both chicken and veggies are cooked through, give the curry a quick stir and serve in a bowl over the cooked quinoa/brown rice. Enjoy!
