15-Minute Chicken And Pea Sauce

15-Minute Chicken and Pea Sauce

Ingredients

Serves 4

½ lb / 200 gr organic ground chicken

½ cup / 2.5 oz / 70 gr frozen green peas (unless you can get fresh ones)

1 small carrot, peeled and finely chopped

1 celery strip, finely chopped

½ onion, finely chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 glass (½ cup) white wine (or good tasting vegetable broth)

½ teaspoon fine grain sea salt

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped (or any other fresh herb you can lay your hands on)

black pepper to taste

Directions

Warm the olive oil over medium heat in a skillet or pan. Add onion, carrot and celery and saute 2 minutes or so until everything is fragrant.

Stir in the ground chicken. Mix well and when it just about to brown splash with the white wine (or broth). Add salt, lower the heat, cover with a lid and cook for 6 minutes. If it looks dry add some broth, one spoonful at a time.

Stir in the peas, cover and cook for another 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat, season with black pepper and sprinkle with thyme.

Serve warm over brown rice, whole wheat pasta, whole grains or (to keep it paleo) cauliflower couscous.
