  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 potato, cubed
  • 1 small carrot, cubed
  • 2 green chile peppers, sliced lengthwise
  • 3 green beans, finely chopped
  • salt to taste

  • 3/4 teaspoon ground turmeric (optional)
  • 14 ounces chicken breast, cut into small pieces

  1. Melt coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add cinnamon stick, peppercorns, cloves, and cardamom; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add garlic and ginger; cook and stir until browned, about 1 minute.
  2. Stir onion and bay leaf into the pot; cook, stirring constantly, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add potato, carrot, green chile peppers, green beans, and salt. Stir in ground black peppers and turmeric. Cook, covered, for 3 minutes.
  3. Stir chicken into the pot until evenly mixed, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in enough water to cover the chicken. Reduce heat to low; cover and cook until chicken is tender, about 30 minutes.
