This is a dish my mom always made when we had company. It's tasty and easy to make in large quantities. I typically make 2-3 times the amount below. In my opinion it tastes better the next day because the flavor intensifies, but it is still delicious straight from the pot. You really can't go wrong with the amount of things you put in this dish, so feel free to add more curry, ginger, veggies or broth to make it the consistency and flavor you want it to be. I use the 98% fat free cream of chicken soup, but the consistancy and taste is better if you use the full fat kind.
Ingredients:
1 green pepper, diced
1/2 cup raisins
1 onion, diced
2 red delicious apples cubed (if you use another kind of apple it just won't taste right)
2-3 teaspoons curry powder (more to taste)
1/2 teaspoons ginger powder (more to taste)
3 uncooked chicken breasts
1 can cream of chicken soup (I use the 98% fat free kind)
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons lemon juice
cashews
coconut
raisins
How To:
1. Boil chicken until it is cooked through and then chop into bite sized pieces and set aside
2. Put a bit of olive oil in the bottom of a sauce pan and saute onions until they are clear
3. Add chicken soup and broth to the onions
4. Add all the other ingredients except the lemon juice, cashews, coconut and raisins
5. Let simmer for 20-30 minutes
6. Add lemon juice and simmer 5 more minutes
7. Serve over jasmine rice and top with cashews, coconut and raisins
YUMMY! So excited to try this. When it says add all other ingredients is that when you put the chicken back in? I am sure it is but want to make sure:)
ReplyDeleteYes, Susan. Also, instead of boiling the chicken you can just cut it up into bite sized pieces and cook it when you cook the onions. That's easier.
