Ingredients

• 8 pieces low-fat chicken sausages
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 large, diced onion
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 medium, sliced carrot
• 1 large, peeled, cored, and diced green apple
• 2 tablespoons curry powder
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
• 1 cup, reduced-fat coconut milk
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh cilantro
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the chicken sausages and cook until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove sausages from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 4

Add sliced carrots and cook for another 5 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 5

Stir in the diced green apple and 2 tablespoons of curry powder. Cook for 1 minute until the spices are fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in 2 cups of low-sodium chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the skillet to lift any browned bits.

Step 7

Return the sausages to the skillet. Add 1 cup of reduced-fat coconut milk and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 8

Simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.

Step 10

Stir the slurry into the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce is thickened.

Step 11

Add 1 cup of frozen peas and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes until the peas are heated through.

Step 12

Season the curry with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, adjusting to taste.

Step 13

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.

Step 14

Serve the curried sausages over cooked rice or alongside warm naan bread, if desired.
