- 2 pounds chicken thighs, no skin, no bone
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 2 scallions, minced
- 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
- 1/2 teaspoon guar gum
- salt to taste
- I prefer to use frozen spinach just because it is easier, but if you want to use fresh (just steam it in a covered skillet with a tiny bit of water). In either case; save the liquids that are formed to add to the recipe.
- Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and place in a bowl; set aside. (Wash up well before preceding).
- In a large skillet or a soup pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. I suggest searing the chicken in two batches. Add just 1/2 Tbsp of the curry powder and 1/2 of the chicken. Stir-fry until all sides of the chicken pieces have been seared. Transfer to a bowl and then add another 1/2 Tbsp of the curry powder and the remaining chicken. Sear and then transfer to the bowl.
- I usually just eat this by itself. But if I have guests, then I usually broil an assortment of veggies that I tossed with canola oil and some coriander, garlic powder and lemon pepper (see page 198).
