A deceptively simple and deceptively delicious dish for the midweek rush that will have the fam chomping at the bits for more.
1 brown onion, diced
80g salted butter
4 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tbsp Quick Butter Chicken Blend
140g tomato paste
2 tsp lemon juice
2 tins coconut cream (270ml each, 100% coconut content)
½ cup water (optional)
2 chicken breasts or 4 thighs, cut into large chunks
Vegetables (optional)
Coriander (as garnish)
Salt to taste
Heat a deep saucepan or pot over medium heat.
Add butter. Once melted, add diced onions and sauté until onions are translucent, for approximately 3-5 minutes.
Add garlic and spice, then stir regularly for 1 minute until the mix is fragrant.
Next, add tomato paste, and continue stirring the mixture regularly for a further minute.
Pour in the coconut cream and lemon juice, stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. You can adjust the consistency of the mixture to your desired liking by adding water if desired.
Once the mixture is simmering, add chicken pieces along with any hard vegetables such as carrots or pumpkin, if desired. Turn heat down to low, and return to a simmer.
Continue simmering all ingredients for 10-15 minutes if you are using chicken breasts, or 15-20 minutes if you are using chicken thighs and any hard vegetables. Add soft vegetables such as cauliflower florets in the last 5-10 minutes of cooking.
Garnish dish with coriander leaves. Serve over basmati rice or with Garlic Naan for dipping.

My family love this dish! We make it regularly and have made it dairy free (with nuttelex) or vegan (with tofu or chickpeas). If you like your dive. Little thicker, you can cook in a little lemons meal too. Always a hit!
