Healthy Chicken Korma
Just because you have decided to make a healthy start does not mean you have to miss out on your favourite dishes. A bit of creativity and boom, a healthy alternative with no cream is created! The fact that my husband did not even notice it was the healthy option speaks volumes!!
Serves 5
5 Chicken Breasts, chopped into big cubes
2 Onions, roughly chopped
1 Green Pepper roughly chopped
1in Piece Ginger, chopped
3 Garlic Cloves, chopped
2 tsp Turmeric
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/2 Cinnamon Stick
1 tsp Coriander Powder
1/2 tsp Chilli Powder
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Ground Ginger
2 tsp Garam Masala
2 tbsp Ground Almonds
1 Tin Low Fat Coconut Milk
2-3 tbsp 0% Fat Greek Yoghurt (the nice thick Fage one!)
1 tbsp Mango Chutney
Rapeseed Oil or Coconut Oil
Fresh Coriander to Serve
Add the onions, green pepper, ginger and garlic to a food processor and whizz until it is a nice fine paste.
In a large casserole (preferably non stick as you can get away with less oil!) heat a splash of oil. Add the paste and cook gently for around 5 mins.
Add the chicken and cook for a few mins.
Add the rest of the spices and cook for 2 mins.
Add the coconut milk and cook for 20 mins with the lid on. Stir periodically.
Stir through the Greek yogurt and the mango chutney add a little more yoghurt if it is too thick.
Serve with brown basmati rice and some fresh coriander. Delish!
