This recipe serves 4.
Ingredients:
1) 2 medium zucchini
2) 2 chicken breasts (about 150 grams each), cut into 1-inch pieces
3) 1 tbsp oil
4) 1 tsp black mustard seeds
5) 8-10 curry leaves
6) 1 tsp turmeric
7) Juice of one lime
8) Salt, to taste
9) Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish
Directions:
1) Use a spiralizer or a julienne peeler to create zoodles from the zucchini. Set these aside.
2) In a large pan, heat the oil. Once the oil is hot, add in the black mustard seeds. Let them sizzle for a few seconds.
3) Add in the curry leaves and turmeric. Stir well for a minute to let the flavors meld.
4) Next, add the chicken to the pan. Let it cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. You want the chicken to be thoroughly cooked through and soaked in the flavors of spices.
5) Squeeze the fresh lime juice all over the cooked chicken. Toss to combine.
6) To assemble the bowls, equally divide the raw zoodles between 4 bowls. Top with equal portions of the chicken.
7) Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve immediately.
