Low Carb Chicken Curry with Flat Bread
Amazing low carb, trim healthy mama s, chicken curry with flatbread!
If you are looking to change up your regular menu, try this chicken curry. As is my normal, this recipe is easy! I try to create recipes that are trim healthy mama approved, family friendly, and easy! This recipe fits all of these requirements. I have had curry in a couple restaurants, the taste was great but they were too hot. I can handle some heat, but not those recipes.
As written, this is a dairy free curry.
I know some people are trying to limit their dairy. If you trying to limit dairy, give this recipe a try. The flatbread is not dairy free though. If you aren’t worried about dairy and don’t have canned coconut milk, substitute the canned coconut milk with half heavy cream and half unsweetened almond milk. And don’t be concerned about the coconut milk giving off flavor. My hubby hates coconut and couldn’t taste anything coconutty.
This recipe is a little brothy so you can use the low carb flatbread to soak up the juices.
Another option is to serve it over cauliflower rice. Adjust the seasonings to your family’s tastes. I kept the heat kind of low. Of course if you are one of the people that think cilantro tastes like soap, you won’t add it. But, if you like cilantro, I highly suggest the garnish. It really adds a nice flavor. This is a crockpot recipe too! I use my Ninja Foodi and that makes it even easier.
Let’s talk about the flatbread.
This flatbread is really good. It is spongey and did a great job soaking up the curry. It is super easy to make. The most time consuming part is most likely shredding the cheese. It is so easy to make, don’t omit if you are worried about time. It really won’t add that much time, but takes the dish to the next level!

Any idea how long this should cook in an Instant Pot?
Depending on the size of your chicken, cubed or not, between 8 and 16 minutes is a guess
This looks amazing. I am new to THM, so am wondering if this is an E?
No, this is an S. The coconut milk is an s and so it the butter. The flatbread is also an s. THM can be hard in the beginning, but stick with it.
