THIS RECIPE
Please make way in your tums and hearts for this terribly
addicting, incredibly delicious chicken tikka bowl. Crispy chicken tenders
brushed with your favorite tikka masala sauce and roasted to a perfect crisp,
fresh cucumber crunch alongside a creamy slaw and some quick pickled onions,
all piled on a bed of light, nutty quinoa with a fresh-made drinkable mint
sauce that might make you CRY REAL HUMAN TEARS.
Ingredients You’ll Need To Make These Bowls Happen
The ingredient list is plentiful here, but it’s all bits to
add to the flavor parade! And though we’re definitely mixing up that
drool-worthy mint sauce from scratch, we’re relying on a lot of pre-made and
store-bought for the rest and whoo-boy, you can too!
For the bowl-build:
tikka masala sauce (also store-bought)
cooked quinoa
sliced or diced cucumbers
pickled red onion
slaw (hi, you guessed it…store-bought mix!)
For the mint sauce:
mayo or plain Greek yogurt
salt
juice of a lime
garlic
jalapeño
Mint Sauce. Throw all the sauce ingredients in the
blender/food processor and zip until smooth-ish.
Bowl Assembly. Layer your quinoa, crispy chicken, slaw,
cucumbers, pickled red onions, and then don’t be shy with that mint sauce over
the top!
It’s all going to be so beautiful and colorful when you get
it together that for just a teeny tiny second you might want to just admire it
for a bit but please, we urge you, do not waste any time staring. GET. AT. IT.
Just Can’t Stop Swooning Over These
Like we said, these bowls are super flexible, so if you don’t want to get on the crispy chicken tender train, that’s totally fine! But we can’t be friends. (Just kidding! Maybe.) Regular skillet-seared chicken breasts totally work, too! We’ve also made it with tofu and sweet potato which were also delicious, so you can swap what you love best. Those crispy little frozen chicken fingies tho…cannot recommend enough.
