INGREDIENTS

• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, quartered
• 1 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp ground coriander seed
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 14 oz fresh cubed butternut squash
• 1 tbsp curry powder
• 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 2 tbsp water
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 4 cups cooked quinoa or rice

DIRECTIONS

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil and swirl to coat. Place chicken in the pan, sprinkle with salt, coriander, garlic powder and onion powder and saute 5 minutes; it won't be fully cooked through.
• Stir squash and curry powder into the skillet. Add broth and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium-low, cover and simmer 10 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to medium and cook 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk water and lemon juice with cornstarch until dissolved. Stir into chicken mixture and simmer until thickened to consistency of velvety gravy.
• Stir in peas. Serve atop rice or quinoa.
