Chicken, Sweet Potato, and Cauliflower Curry
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons (15 mL + 10 mL) extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 8 skinless boneless chicken thighs trimmed of excess fat
- Sea salt and cracked black pepper
- 1 small yellow onion finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 4 teaspoons (20 mL) fresh ginger finely grated
- 3 tablespoon (45 mL) curry powder
- 1 tablespoon 15 mL ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon 15 mL ground coriander
- ¼ teaspoon 1 mL cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon 1 mL sea salt
- 1 bottle (23 ounces/680 mL) tomato passata or tomato purée
- 1 medium sweet potato peeled and diced into ⅓-inch (8 mm) cubes (2 to 2½ cups/500 to 625 mL)
- 1 can (14 ounces/400 mL) light coconut milk
- 1 medium head cauliflower cut into small florets (6 to 8 cups/1.5 to 2 L)
- 1 bunch rainbow Swiss chard stalks and ribs cut into ¾-inch (2 cm) pieces and leaves thinly sliced
- ½ cup (125 mL) frozen shelled edamame
Garnish
- ¼ cup (60 mL) unsalted natural pistachios, crushed
- ¼ cup (60 mL) golden raisins (optional)
- Fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, and place them in the skillet boned side up. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Once browned (but not cooked through), transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining 2 teaspoons (10 mL) olive oil to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, curry powder, cumin, coriander, cayenne, and salt. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 to 60 seconds.
- Add the tomato passata and the sweet potatoes, cover the skillet with a lid, and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sweet potato is almost fork-tender.
