Ingredients
⅓ cup cilantro, packed
½ cup olive oil
2 TBSP lime juice
¾ tsp sea salt
4 cloves garlic
1 TBSP solid cooking fat
½ onion, diced
1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken thigh meat, cut into 1 ½ inch chunks
2 zucchini, spiralized
2 carrots, spiralized
Cilantro leaves, thinly-sliced radishes, lime wedges, and avocado, for garnish (optional)
⅓ cup (20 g) cilantro, packed
118 ml olive oil
2 TBSP (30 ml) lime juice
¾ tsp (3.75 ml) sea salt
4 clove garlic
1 TBSP (15 ml) solid cooking fat
½ onion, diced
680 grams boneless, skinless chicken thigh meat, cut into 1 ½ inch chunks
2 zucchini, spiralized
2 carrots, spiralized
Cilantro leaves, thinly-sliced radishes, lime wedges, and avocado, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 °F (218 °C).
- First, make the sauce by placing cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, ¼ tsp (1.25ml) sea salt, and 1 clove garlic in a blender and blending until thoroughly combined. Set aside.
- Place the solid cooking fat in the bottom of an ovenproof skillet on medium heat. When the fat has melted and the pan is hot, add the onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, for five minutes, or until lightly browned. Add 3 cloves of garlic minced and cook for another 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Turn the heat to high. Add the chicken to the pan and spread out so that the chicken pieces are in a thin layer. Allow to cook for 1-2 minutes without stirring, to allow the bottom of the chicken pieces to brown. Give them a good stir and place in the oven to cook for 12 minutes, or until cooked throughout.
- While the chicken is cooking, place the portion of zoodles being served in a mixing bowl and toss with the dressing (If you are eating 2 servings now and leaving 2 for later, place half the zoodles and half the dressing in the bowl and toss; package the remainder for separate storage). Set aside.
- When the chicken is finished cooking, allow to cool for a few minutes before tossing the desired portion with the vegetables and dressing. Serve garnished with additional cilantro leaves, radish slices, a lime wedge, and avocado slices if desired.
