Make a kickin’ chicken curry tonight! Chicken is a lean, versatile and budget-friendly option for mealtime. A basic chicken curry can be a crowd pleaser and neither dull nor has to be predictable. Take a break from your regular chicken curry and pair it with fresh vegetables. By pairing cauliflower to your chicken curry, you’ll savor the season in a healthier way.
The curry unites garlic, ginger, cumin, turmeric, and chili pepper. The spices make a very fragrant simmer sauce for the chicken and the cauliflower. Fresh cilantro provides an herbal note which is refreshing. Feel free to pair the curry with piping hot rice, some bread or chapatti.
