Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 3/4 lb (about 12 oz) Trader Joe’s Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts or Thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 bag Trader Joe’s Tikka Masala Curry Sauce (8.8 oz)
  • 1 bag Trader Joe’s Organic Riced Cauliflower (12 oz)
  • Fresh cilantro sprigs (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat with 1 tbsp olive or avocado oil. Add chicken pieces and sauté 6–7 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Pour in Trader Joe’s Tikka Masala Curry Sauce. Stir to coat chicken. Simmer on low for 8–10 minutes until chicken is fully cooked and sauce thickens.
  • In a separate skillet, sauté Trader Joe’s Organic Riced Cauliflower with 1 tsp oil for 5 minutes until warmed and fluffy.
  • Spoon chicken tikka masala over cauliflower rice. Garnish with cilantro if desired.

Notes

 
  • Scaling Up: Use 1 lb chicken with two bags of sauce for 3–4 servings.
  • Substitutions: Try shrimp or salmon instead of chicken.
  • Leftover Tip: Store in an airtight container up to 3 days. 
  • Flavor Boost: Stir in 1/4 cup compliant coconut cream for a richer curry.
