- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin (or coriander)
- substitute: 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- note: remove if using chili powder
- 6oz (low sodium) canned chicken, drained

Set a nonstick skillet on medium heat and once hot, add the oil and onion and cook for 2 – 3 minutes until the edges of the onion turn brown.

Just made this. Wouldn’t be able to tell it was canned chicken. Used a 12oz can to have leftovers but didn’t change anything else. Still solid
haha! I had the same reaction about not knowing it was canned. glad it worked for you!
