Ingredients 

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup green onion, diced
  • 2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 14.5 oz diced tomatoes
  • 13.5 oz full fat coconut milk
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 pepper
  • 1 lb chicken breast, boneless, skinless, and cubed
  • 8 oz udon noodles
  • 3 broccoli crowns, chopped into pieces
  • 1 tsp corn starch, optional

Instructions 

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the green onions and saute for 1-2 minutes.  Add in the cumin, ground ginger, turmeric, red chili powder and garlic.  Saute for 1 minute.
  • Add the canned tomatoes (drained), coconut milk, sea salt and pepper. Next stir in the chicken.  Stir and bring to a simmer.  Turn the heat down to low-medium and allow to simmer for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  • While the chicken cooks, cook the udon noodles and broccoli. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the udon noodles and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the udon noodles for done. Udon noodles can be salty without a rinse, so I suggest rinsing them in water when done cooking. Steam the broccoli for 8-10 minutes as well.
  • If you want to thicken your curry sauce a bit more, combine the cornstarch in a small bowl with 1 tbsp of cold water.  When the cornstarch is dissolved into the water, pour into the sauce and continue to simmer for a few more minutes. This step is optional.
  • Once the chicken is fully cooked, add the cooked noodles and broccoli in to the coconut curry sauce and serve!
