Description

Your allergen friendly Tikka Masala Inspired Dish! You’ll never believe this one is dairy free. 


Ingredients

Units Scale

Marinade:

1 lb cubed chicken

1 tsp salt

1 tsp cumin

1 tsp garam masala

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp chili powder 

1/4 cup cilantro

1 tbsp avocado or canola oil

Juice from 1/2 lime 

Sauce:

14oz crushed tomatoes

1.5 cups oat creamer

1 tbsp avocado or canola oil

2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cumin

1/4 tsp garam masala

1/2 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp chili powder 

1/4 cup cilantro (for topping)


Instructions

1. Combine the chicken with all the marinade ingredients. Marinade for 1-2 hours. Don’t let it marinade too much longer as the citrus may begin to cook the chicken.
2. Place the chicken in a pan over medium high heat. Cook for about 3 minutes until the outside begins to brown. Don’t worry about cooking all the way through.
3. In a pot, combine the crushed tomatoes, oat creamer, and spices (besides the cilantro) and simmer over low to medium heat for about 5 minutes.
4. Add the chicken to the sauce and continue to simmer until the chicken reaches an internal temp of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
5. Top with cilantro and enjoy! If it’s within your diet, you can add garlic, shallots, and crushed pepper when cooking the sauce. I paired this chicken with basmati rice and sautéed mushrooms.
