Why We Love This Healthy Chicken Pasanda Recipe<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
It contains creamy coconut milk. Coconut milk<\/em> can provide your body with an alternative to traditional cow’s milk. Which can be vital to those who are lactose intolerant. The health benefits you can reap from this non dairy formula include properties of being anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and anti-fungal. This means when the coconut milk enters the body, the lauric acid, found inside the coconut, converts to help destroy disease causing organisms. It is for this reason consuming coconuts can help to protect your body from infections and viruses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Pasanda Instructions<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In six steps you will have made this healthy chicken pasanda recipe with a Mindful Chef twist. To start, follow these simple instructions:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
- \r\n
- Heat a large frying pan with 1\/2 tbsp oil on a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5 mins, turning occasionally, until becoming golden.<\/li>\r\n
- Meanwhile, finely chop or crush the garlic. Finely slice the onion. Halve the tomatoes. Finely chop the coriander.<\/li>\r\n
- Once the chicken has been cooking for 5 mins and is turning golden, add the onion, garlic, half the coriander and the spice blend to the pan. Continue to cook for 3 mins. Place another large frying pan on a medium heat and add the almonds. Toast for 2-3 mins, until golden, then remove and set aside to cool.<\/li>\r\n
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tbsp water and the spinach in a large frying pan on a medium-high heat. Cook the spinach for 1 min, until wilted, then add the rice. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Cook for a further 3-4 mins, stirring often, until piping hot. Keep warm.<\/li>\r\n
- Add the coconut milk and tomatoes to the pan with the chicken. Bring to the boil, then simmer on a medium heat for 5 mins, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency and the chicken is cooked through. Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear. Cook for longer if necessary.<\/li>\r\n
- Season the curry with sea salt and black pepper, then serve with the spinach rice. Sprinkle the almonds and remaining coriander over the top.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
