INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils
1/4 cup Light Coconut Milk
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper diced
1/4 cup Yellow Onion chopped
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1/2 tsp Ground Turmeric
1/2 tsp Ground Coriander
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. In a medium saucepan, lightly sear the chicken over medium heat until just browned, then set aside.
In the same pan, add chopped yellow onion, diced red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until the vegetables soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in ground cumin, turmeric, and coriander to coat the vegetables with the spices.
Pour in the light coconut milk and add the cooked lentils. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it into the lentil mixture. Cover and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the flavors meld.
Fold in the baby spinach and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until wilted. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve hot, enjoying a balanced blend of creamy, spiced flavors with a beautiful mix of textures.
