chicken

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Tofu is a plant-based option, while chicken thighs are more economical than breasts.

Wash hands and prepare ingredients.

Marinate chicken thighs with sage, thyme, rosemary, homemade garlic paste, thinly sliced shallots, homemade curry powder, smoked paprika, all-purpose seasoning, black pepper, salt, lime juice, and olive oil.

Let chicken marinate at room temperature for 1.5 hours.

Heat ghee in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Sear chicken thighs in batches until browned, about 5-7 minutes each batch.

Remove chicken and set aside.

In a separate larger pot, add oil used for searing, then add thinly sliced onions and the rest of the marinade.

Caramelize onions for 8 minutes, then add white mushrooms and stir.

Pour in chicken broth to deglaze the pot and lift caramelized bits off the bottom.

Add seared chicken pieces to the pot without stirring, cover, and let cook through.
