Ingredients

  • Chicken
  • 500g boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
  • Coconut Sauce
  • 200ml full-fat coconut milk
  • 200ml chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 spring onions, sliced
  • Cauliflower Rice
  • 400g cauliflower, riced
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • Garnish
  • Fresh coriander
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds, toasted
  • Lime wedge

Method

1

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and sear until golden (5–7 mins). Remove and set aside.

2

In the same skillet, soften the spring onions, garlic and ginger for 2 minutes. Add the dry spices and stir for 1 minute to toast.

3

Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and reduce slightly for 5 minutes.

4

Return chicken to the pan and simmer on medium-low for 10 minutes until cooked through.

5

Heat coconut oil in a separate pan. Sauté cauliflower rice for 3–5 minutes until just tender. Season with salt and pepper.

6

Serve over cauliflower rice. Top with fresh coriander, toasted pumpkin seeds and a squeeze of lime.

Atlas Tips

Use breast over thighs to keep saturated fat lower and protein higher.

Toast your spices dry for 30 seconds before adding any liquid — it makes a noticeable difference to depth of flavour.

Batch cook the chicken curry and refrigerate for up to 3 days. The cauliflower rice is best made fresh.

Cheat Code #2: The Atlas Dessert

Cheat Code #2: The Atlas Dessert

by | May 15, 2026 | recipes

One of the biggest myths about eating clean is that you have to give up everything you enjoy. You don't. You just have to make smarter swaps — and sometimes the swap is actually better than the original.

Take dessert. A single scoop of vanilla ice cream is around 200 calories and 24g of carbs, most of which is pure sugar. It tastes great for about 45 seconds, then your insulin spikes and your body quietly parks the whole thing as fat.

The Atlas Diet alternative takes 90 seconds to make: 150g of zero-carb Greek yoghurt, a teaspoon of double cream, about 12 blueberries, and 8 crushed walnut pieces. Around 164 calories, 13.5g of protein, and just 2.2g of net carbs. The walnuts give you crunch and healthy fats. The blueberries bring the sweetness without the spike. The cream makes it feel like an actual treat.

ATLAS isn't about stopping treats. It's about eating things that work for you rather than against you. This does exactly that.
