INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
0.25 cup dry Green Lentils
0.5 cup cooked Brown Rice
0.25 cup Light Coconut Milk
0.5 medium Onion
0.5 medium Bell Pepper
0.5 cup Diced Tomatoes
2 cloves Garlic
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Curry Powder
PREPARATION
Rinse the green lentils and set them aside. In a small pot, add lentils with water and simmer until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Dice the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Roughly chop the spinach.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-size pieces. Season lightly with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
In a large pan, heat a small amount of water or broth over medium heat. Sauté the onion, bell pepper, and garlic until they soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until lightly browned on all sides.
Stir in the curry powder and diced tomatoes, allowing the spices to bloom for about 1 minute.
Pour in the light coconut milk and add the cooked lentils. Bring to a gentle simmer and allow the flavors to meld for 5-7 minutes.
Just before serving, stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted.
In a separate pot, reheat or prepare the fluffy brown rice as needed.
Serve the creamy chicken and vegetable lentil curry over a bed of warm brown rice and enjoy your hearty, nutritious meal.
