Cooking Steps

Caramelize onions
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Zest, then juice lemon. 
  • Peel, then cut onions into 1/8-inch slices.
  • Heat a medium pot (large for 4 servings) over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and onions. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until onions start to soften.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) sugar. Cook for 4-5 min, stirring often, until onions caramelize. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer onions to a plate.
Prep and make mint yogurt
2
  • Meanwhile, peel, then halve carrot lengthwise. Cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Pick mint leaves from stems, then roughly chop.
  • To a small bowl, add yogurt, half the mint, lemon zest, 2 tsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
Cook chicken

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with half the Indian Spice Mix, salt and pepper.
  • To the same pot (from step 1), add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil. Heat over medium.
  • When hot, add chicken and carrots. Cook for 7-9 min, stirring often, until chicken is golden and cooked through.**
  • Add rice, ginger-garlic puree, half the caramelized onions, chicken stock powder and remaining Indian Spice Mix. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until fragrant.
Cook rice

  • Add 1 1/2 cups (3 cups) water and half the mint yogurt. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 8-9 min.
