This Indian dish tastes far more complicated than it is. Served with low-carb riced cauliflower for an easy and delicious weeknight meal. It can also be made in advance and put into the freezer. It freezes and reheats beautifully, which is why I doubled the original recipe. If you want to make a small batch to try, just half everything.
INGREDIENTS:
3 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/2 cup coconut oil or ghee
2 small diced onions, about 5 ounces
4 cloves minced garlic
2 Tablespoons fresh grated ginger
4 Teaspoons each Curry and Masala
1 Teaspoon each Turmeric and chili powder
16 ounce can of unsweetened diced tomatoes
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream or creamed coconut milk
4 Teaspoons coconut flour or 4 Tablespoons almond flour (optional, but recommended)
