Remove chicken from the pot

Add 1 tbsp butter to the pot on medium heat

Add ½ head of roughly sliced cabbage

Deglaze the pot with 1–2 tbsp white wine

Scrape the bottom to lift the fond

Fill the coconut milk can with water and add it to the pot

Add 1 tbsp homemade chicken stock OR 1 stock cube (optional, but great for flavour)

A Few Wee Tips & Notes 🔪

Chicken thighs are very forgiving and stay tender even if cooked longer

All veg is optional - add or omit whatever you like

To make it vegetarian: start with 2 sliced onions, season with taco mix, cook until soft, then follow the same steps from butter onward

This can easily be made dairy free by replacing the butter with a small bit more oil before the cabbage goes in

Salt brings out natural flavour - even though it looks like a lot in the video, it’s still less than what’s in pre-made sauces and packet mixes

t = teaspoon, T = tablespoon

Always taste at the end - that’s when you know if it needs a pinch more salt

This works great as a stew on its own, over mash, a pie filling, or over rice

This would of been incredible finished with some chopped fresh cilantro/coriander
