One Pot Chicken Kitchari 

Chicken Kitchari is a comforting and nourishing dish that combines the traditional Indian concept of kitchari—often a blend of rice and lentils—with organic tender chicken  thighs for added protein. This one-pot meal is seasoned with organic aromatic spices like fenugreek, turmeric, and ginger, creating a warming and comforting one pot dish.

This makes enough for 4 people or 4 lunches. Top it with fresh herbs and yoghurt

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or coconut oil in a medium sized saucepan. Add 500g of chopped chicken thigh pieces

  •  Add Turmeric Kitchari mix, stirring, until fragrant, approx. 2 minutes.

  • Add 1L (4 cups) boiling water, stir to combine and bring to a bubbling boil.

  • Recommended – add 2 cups of mixed chopped vegetables. I used peas, carrots and potatoes.   

  • Turn heat to low and cook kitchari, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes. Serve Hot with a drizzle of yoghurt and fresh herbs.
