Chicken And Heirloom Pumpkin With Thyme Butter Sauce Recipes

PUMPKIN BUTTER CHICKEN

Pumpkin Butter Chicken image

This hearty pumpkin curry is an autumnal twist on a classic butter chicken. Pumpkin puree replaces heavy cream for a lighter, healthier, but just as hearty curry. Diced chicken pieces marinate in a spiced yogurt marinade before browned and then cooked fully in a thick and warming sauce.

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 21

Ingredients

1/2 cup yogurt (I used dairy free coconut yoghurt but you can use any plain yoghurt)
1 tablespoon minced or grated ginger
1 tablespoon minced or grated garlic
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into bite sized chunks (can sub with chicken breast)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 white or yellow onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter or ghee (non dairy butter if needed or more coconut oil)
1 1/2 tablespoon minced or grated ginger
1 tablespoon minced or grated garlic
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon garam masala
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon salt + more to taste
1 (14 oz) can unsweetened full fat coconut milk
1 cup (225 g) pumpkin puree

Steps:

In a medium sized bowl: add the marinade ingredients (yoghurt, ginger, garlic, garam masala, turmeric, chili powder and salt).
Mix together until fully combined and then stir in the chicken pieces until coated in the yoghurt blend.
Cover the chicken and let marinate at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
Heat the coconut oil to a large skillet over a medium heat. When hot, add the chicken pieces to the skillet and fry until all sides are browned (about 3 minutes). You may need to fry the chicken in batches of 2-3 to prevent the pan from crowding. Once browned, remove from the pan and set aside on a plate. The chicken will cook fully in the sauce later.
Add the butter or ghee (or coconut oil) to the same skillet you used for the chicken. When hot, add the onions and fry until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the ginger, garlic, tomato paste and spices (garam masala, curry powder, coriander, cumin and salt) and sauté another 2-3 minutes.
Add the coconut milk and pumpkin to the skillet. Stir until a thick, mostly smooth sauce forms and let simmer for 10 to let the sauce thicken slightly.
Add the chicken back to the skillet, stir and let the curry simmer another 8-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
Taste and season with more salt if needed. Top with fresh cilantro and serve over rice (or cauliflower rice) and with gluten free naan.
