Healing Slow Cooked Chicken Curry

This slow cooked chicken recipe is incredibly simple as no browning of the meat required. It is pumped full of anti-inflammatory ingredients such as the turmeric and ginger. The broth is very restorative on your gut and the pinch of cayenne is perfect for the post Winter sniffles. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 6 organic chicken thighs, diced
• 1/2 onion, finely sliced
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed whole with a knife
• 2 tsp of your favourite curry powder
• 1 tsp freshly grated turmeric (or dry)
• 1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
• 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1/2 cup chicken bone broth/stock
• Freshly cracked black pepper & sea salt to taste
• Lots of fresh veggies – we like broccoli, zucchini, snow peas and sweet potato
• Freshly cut coriander to serve

Method:

1. Place all the ingredients except the veggies in a slow cooker (or heavy based saucepan if you don’t have a slow cooker). No need to brown the meat!
2. Mix all the ingredients well to ensure chicken is covered with seasonings.
3. Cover and cook for 3 hours on high cooker setting (or 6 hours on low).

Notes:

• Add your favourite veggies in the last 10 minutes of cooking. If you are using sweet potato, add during the last half hour.
• Serve with some brown basmati rice or on a bed of fresh spinach leaves. Some slices of fresh lime are also delicious.
