Ingredients

• 8 oz boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup thick yogurt
• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp garlic paste
• 1 tbsp ginger paste
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 cup almond milk
• 1 pinch saffron threads
• Salt, to taste
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish For Saffron Rice:
• 1 cup basmati rice
• 2 cups water
• Pinch of saffron threads
• Salt, to taste For Spiced Mango Chutney:
• 1 cup mango, diced
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp white vinegar
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine chicken breasts, yogurt, and almond flour. Mix well and set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, prepare the spiced mango chutney by combining all ingredients in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 15 20 minutes. Set aside.
3. Heat ghee or coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until golden brown. Stir in garlic and ginger pastes, followed by cumin, coriander, cardamom, and cinnamon. Cook for 1 2 minutes.
4. Remove the marinated chicken from the yogurt mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet with the spices, stirring to coat evenly. Cook until browned on all sides.
5. Pour almond milk into the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
6. While the chicken is cooking, prepare saffron rice by combining basmati rice, water, and a pinch of saffron threads in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
7. Once the chicken is cooked, season with salt to taste and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Chef’s Insight

To achieve an even richer flavor, consider using cashew milk instead of almond milk in this dish.
