Description
Fabulous midweek meal
Ingredients
Scale
1 large cauliflower
2 tablespoons tikka curry powder
12 skinless and boneless chicken thighs
400g cherry tomatoes (can be all red if you want)
200g baby leaf spinach
Low calorie cooking spray
Optional – serve with Roasted vegetable cous cous – need to add in those calories as extras
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200C/Fan 180C
- Cook the cauliflower florets in a saucepan of boiling water over a high heat for 5 minutes – so it is just tender. Drain well.
- Meanwhile, mix the curry powder and 3 tablespoons of water in a shallow dish to make a smooth paste.
- Make a few slashes in each of the chicken thighs, coat each thigh in the curry paste. Arrange in a large roasting tin and spray with low calorie cooking spray.
- Toss the cauliflower florets into any remaining paste and add to the tin around the chicken thighs. Season lightly, spray with low cal cooking spray and roast for 10 minutes.
- Check the chicken. f cooking well, add the tomatoes to the tin (scatter them around) and cook for a further 20 minutes or until chicken is completely cooked through.
- Just before the end of the cooking time place the spinach in a large colander over the sink and wilt it by pouring over a kettle of boiling water (take care not to scald yourself). Drain well, add to the roasting tin and serve hot.
