INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
1/3 cup Light Coconut Milk (80g)
1/2 tbsp Unsalted Butter (7.5g)
1 tbsp Tomato Paste (15g)
1/4 small Yellow Onion (25g)
1 clove Garlic (3g)
1/2 tsp Fresh Ginger (2g)
Spices (Cumin, Turmeric, Garam Masala, Paprika) to taste
PREPARATION
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Finely dice the yellow onion, mince the garlic, and grate the fresh ginger.
In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and sear until they are lightly browned on all sides.
Stir in the tomato paste and your selection of spices (cumin, turmeric, garam masala, paprika), allowing them to bloom in the butter for about a minute.
Pour in the light coconut milk, stirring well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Adjust seasoning as needed, then serve hot.
