Pumpkin paleo chicken curry recipe
Recipe by6 boneless chicken thighs, diced (about 18oz)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
2 medium zucchini, sliced
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
¼ cup water
2 Tablespoons coconut oil
½ Tablespoon turmeric
½ Tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon cumin
8 cups shredded cauliflower
1. In a large saucepan over high heat, melt the coconut oil. Add the onion and spices and sauté.
Add the chicken and cook until the sides have just turned white.
Turn down the heat to low and add the pureed pumpkin and water. Stir until combined and then cover and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
At the 10 minute mark, add the zucchini and mushrooms.
2. For the cauliflower rice, just saute shredded cauliflower in oil or butter until it is the desired texture. I like to shred mine with a food processor. Pro tip - if you're doing a lot of cauliflower rice in advance, store the shredded cauliflower raw and then cook before servings. It will keep better and longer.
3. Serve chicken mixture over the cauliflower rice.
