Directions
- Wash and dry all fresh produce.
- Boil the potatoes in a medium pot until fork-tender, about 10–15 minutes, then drain.
- Mince the ginger and garlic; dice the onion, bell pepper, zucchini, and jalapeño, and place all in a bowl.
- Pat the chicken dry and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat the skillet and add oil, then cook the chicken and vegetables until the chicken is golden and almost cooked through, about 6–7 minutes.
- Shave the cilantro leaves from the stems and mince them, discarding the stems.
- Add half of the cilantro, diced tomatoes, pine nuts, and the spices to the skillet; simmer until the sauce thickens, 3–4 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and add them to the skillet; stir to combine and remove from heat.
- Serve, garnishing with the remaining cilantro.
Two tips
- Prep ahead by finely chopping garlic, ginger, onion, peppers, and cilantro and storing in separate bowls for quick assembly.
- Leftovers reheat well in a skillet with a splash of water to loosen the sauce and warm through.
