Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small leek or green onion(s), chopped 170 grams
- ½ teaspoon crushed coriander seeds
- 8 to 10 chicken legs, thoroughly pat-dried About 2 to 2.5 pounds (908 grams to 1.2 kilos)
- 3 teaspoon salt, or more to taste, divided
- 4 to 5 large swede/rutabaga, peeled and chopped, cut into cubes 2.65 pounds or 1200 grams
- 3 to 4 regular carrots (or 2 large ones) peeled, and roughly chopped into same size as rutabaga. 0.69 pounds or 315 grams
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika powder
- 1 (320-ounce/907 gram) can of chicken broth or 4 cups homemade
- 1 cup of water 8 ounces/237 ml
- 6 tablespoons coconut cream 180 grams
Instructions
- Heat olive in a large pot over medium heat. Add leek and coriander. Cook and stir for about 10 seconds
- Arrange the chicken legs in the pan, pushing leek between each leg—season with 1 teaspoon of salt. Cook for about 5 minutes on one side until slightly browned, then turn and slightly brown the other side for about 2 to 3 minutes—season that side also with one teaspoon of salt.
- Stir in the veggies and add all the rest of the seasoning. Use a wooden spoon to stir well, divide the seasoning, and gently scrape off the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Pour over the broth and water to barely cover the chicken. Change the heat to high, cover the pot, and let it come to a simmer.
- Adjust to medium or medium-low heat to keep a steady simmer and cook for 15 minutes, pot half-covered.
- Stir in the coconut cream. At this point, season with one more teaspoon of salt or adjust to taste.
- Simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes or until the chicken legs are cooked through and tender.
- Serve with chopped cilantro (optional), and enjoy!
