with cauliflower and green beans

Active: 25 Total: 40

One-pot curry is an easy weeknight dish to pull together any combo of protein and veggies. Tonight we've got rotisserie chicken or tempeh in the pot with cauliflower and green beans (+ carrots for our vegetarians). Our paleo folks will be drowning zucchini noodles with this curry while everyone else will be spooning it over your leftover rice.

Prep

  1. Rotisserie chicken - Take meat off the bone and shred. Use knife and fork or just hands. If you’re making Wednesday’s dinner, prep both night’s portions. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead) 

  2. Rice - If not made from last night, cook rice. For white rice, rinse until clear. Fill a saucepan or Dutch oven (or rice cooker) with rice, water (use 2:1 ratio for water to rice), and some salt. Cover with lid and bring to a boil. Once water boils, stir, lower heat to a low-medium, and cover. Check white rice after ~20 min; brown at ~45 min. Rice is done when it's absorbed all the water. If it's not done, leave the cover on until all water has been absorbed. Take cover off to release steam and fluff with a wooden spoon after 5 minutes. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead) 

  3. Onions / Cauliflower / Green beans - Prep as directed. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
