🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
✓ 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter
✓ 1 medium onion, finely diced
✓ 4 garlic cloves, minced
✓ 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
✓ 2 tablespoons tomato paste
✓ 1 can (14 oz) low-sodium crushed tomatoes
✓ 0.75 cup plain Greek yogurt (0% fat)
✓ 1 tablespoon garam masala
✓ 1.5 teaspoons turmeric powder
✓ 1 teaspoon ground cumin
✓ 1 teaspoon Kashmiri chili powder
✓ 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
✓ 1 teaspoon sea salt
✓ 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
✓ 1 tablespoon coconut oil
✓ 0.25 cup low-sodium chicken broth
✓ 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
✓ 1 teaspoon lemon juice

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Season chicken cubes with 0.5 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken for 5-6 minutes until golden on all sides. Remove and set aside.

2. In the same skillet, melt grass-fed butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.

3. Add minced garlic and ginger, stirring constantly for 1 minute until fragrant. This activates metabolic-boosting compounds.

4. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, allowing flavors to deepen and caramelize slightly.

5. Add garam masala, turmeric, cumin, Kashmiri chili powder, and cayenne. Toast the spices for 1 minute while stirring to enhance their bioavailability.

6. Pour in crushed tomatoes and chicken broth. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer. Return chicken to the skillet.

7. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for 12-15 minutes, allowing flavors to meld and sauce to thicken slightly.

8. Remove from heat and let cool for 2 minutes. Slowly stir in Greek yogurt until fully incorporated, creating a creamy sauce without excess fat.

9. Season with remaining salt and lemon juice to taste. The acidity aids nutrient absorption.

10. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve over cauliflower rice or brown rice to maintain metabolic optimization.
