This is a delicious paleo chicken curry & “rice” recipe that will have you going back to the stove to fill your bowl with a second helping (or at least we always do).
Prep note: The rice and the chicken take about the same amount of time to cook, so this is an ideal dish to prepare as a couple with each person preparing one piece of the dish.
