Stir Fry Spicy Chicken & Vegetable Curry

Stir-frying is a healthy and quick cooking method with an infinite variety of dishes.

I haven’t always been a fan of cauliflower but I find myself buying cauliflower often and craving this meal – this recipe is a game changer.

Swapping out cream for a good quality yoghurt is a much healthier option, and when paired with lemon, the yoghurt takes on the flavours of the spices beautifully.

This Primal recipe brings vegetables to life with a refreshing burst of flavours.

Ingredients (serves 4)

Rating: 1 out of 5.
  • 1/2 lemon, squeezed
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 2cm piece ginger, grated
  • 2 cups grass fed & organic full fat yoghurt
  • 1/2 chilli, seeds removed sliced thin
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • 2 teaspoons coriander powder
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 5 cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 chilli, seeds removed sliced thinly

  • 1 head of broccoli, cut into small pieces
  • 1/2 cauliflower, cut into small pieces
  • 1 carrot, chopped into small pieces
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into circles
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced

Method

  • Heat oil on HIGH until very hot, fry off garlic and ginger.
  • Add chicken, season with a pinch of cumin, garam masala and coriander powder (fresh preferably), stir fry until brown.
  • In a small blender, combine tomatoes and chilli to a pulp, pour over the chicken.
  • Move chicken to outside of pan, add vegetables starting with those requiring more cooking (cauliflower and carrot), stir fry for 2 minutes, cover to steam.
  • Add vegetables that don’t require as much cooking (shallots, broccoli and carrot), and lemon and yoghurt.
  • Stir all and cover, simmering on LOW for about 7 minutes ensuring you don’t burn the yoghurt.
  • *Simmer time varies depending upon how crunchy or soft you prefer your vegetables.

Tip: The meat should be cut into small pieces or thin strips so it cooks quickly and evenly.
