Equipment

  • Food Processor
  • Large Skillet

Ingredients

  • 3 lbs of boneless skinless chicken thighs cut into 1 inch chunks
  • 1 large cabbage thinly sliced
  • 4 medium tomatoes roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1 teaspoon of tomato paste
  • 3 tablespoons of The New Primal's Classic Marinade or coconut aminos

Green Seasoning:

  • 1/2 yellow onion
  • 6 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 cup of chopped parsley
  • 4 green onions

Instructions

  • Make green seasoning by combining all the ingredients in a food processor and processing until smooth. Alternatively you can add the ingredients and 1/4 cup of water to a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Add green seasoning, salt and tomato paste to the chicken and set aside (for best results marinade for at least 30 minutes but it is not necessary)
  • Bring a large skillet up to temperature on medium-high heat
  • When hot add the oil and let the oil come up to temperature then add the seasoned chicken
  • Sauté the chicken until it fully cooks and the pink color is no longer there
  • Then add The New Primal's classic marinade and continue to cook for another 5 minutes
  • Next add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes
  • Then add the sliced cabbage a few hand full at a time
  • Stir the cabbage and chicken together and continue to sauté on medium-high heat
  • Repeat steps 8-9 until all of the cabbage has been added to the dish
  • Continue to sauté for about an additional 5 minutes, stirring constantly to ensure even cooking
  • Remove from the heat and enjoy warm

Notes

Typically I would only use 1 1/2 lbs of chicken for this dish, but I increased the amount of chicken so that I would have a better protein to vegetable ratio for my Whole30 meal template.
