Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped
  • 1 medium-sized russet potato, diced
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup peas
  • 8 frozen pakoras I like the Spice it up Foods brand

Chicken marinade

  • 1 lb chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tbsp plain yogurt (Greek or low fat is fine!)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala (sub in cardamom or if you're really in a pinch, leave out altogether and double the ground ginger)
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp ground dried ginger
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Aloo gobi spice

  • 1 tsp curry
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp ground dried ginger
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 F. Mix chicken together with marinade ingredients and let marinate for 10-15 minutes.
  • Toss cauliflower, potatoes and red onion with the ingredients under the aloo gobi spice heading, along with olive oil on a baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove from oven. Mix peas into cauliflower mixture.
  • Add chicken and pakoras to the same baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, turning pakoras and tossing chicken halfway through.
  • Remove from oven, and serve!

Notes

Nutritional info does not include pakoras as this varies by brand. If using the Spice it Up brand, add 80 calories for every 2 pakoras.
Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days then microwave for 1-2 minutes.
Freeze the chicken cooked or raw in the marinade for up to 3 months. Defrost in the fridge overnight then cook or reheat as normal.
