Easy Stovetop Pulled Indian Chicken (paleo)

This Easy Stovetop Pulled Indian Chicken is a super simple paleo dinner recipe that only takes about 30 minutes to prepare! 

Easy Stovetop Indian Chicken (paleo)

Here goes another one of Jordan’s crazy diets.

I recently read Tim Ferriss’s 4-Hour Workweek and 4-Hour Diet, both of which I would recommend for sure. And well, they inspired me so much that I’m officially eating lentils and spinach for breakfast.

This Easy Stovetop Pulled Indian Chicken is a paleo-friendly recipe for dinner that takes under 30-minutes to make. It’s full of spices, so it’s positively bursting with flavor. The only bad thing about it is that it makes your office smell very distinct when you re-heat it at work. (Ask me how I know).

It’s made with coconut milk, but I promise you won’t taste the coconut. It just gives the chicken a delicious creaminess. Indian spices are added to make this taste just like butter chicken from your favorite Indian restaurant.

Add some cilantro on top and you’ve got yourself a delicious low-carb meal that’s hard to mess up.

If you’re following the 4-Hour Diet, serve this delicious Indian chicken alongside lentils with some curry powder and cayenne. This meal is super filling!

If you’re paleo, serve it with some cauli rice or a big green salad.

If you’re normal, eat this over rice or with naan bread or both. Go crazy.

    This sounds delicious! We're going for fewer carbs this summer (tell that to the cake I just posted) and so this sounds perfect.
