Dinner: Coconut Chicken Curry

This dish is a staple in our home. It's good for breakfast (before a workout), lunch, and dinner.

Throw some chopped onion, garlic, and pepper (any color. I chose yellow)
Saute until onion are soft.

Throw in some chicken. We do this brand. Yes, chicken breast is better than the thigh. However, I can't find organic boneless, skinless, breasts so it's a trade off that our family is willing to make.
Add salt. And how cute is this salt container? Tevita got for me from Vancouver, Cananda years ago.
Ok, you'll notice the photo below does not have chicken. I actually cooked the chicken through, took it out of the pan to chop it up, and while it was chopping, I cooked the curry. Yes, that's the OHMAI part of this day: saute your curry in the initial steps of making this dish. Curry's got to be cooked. I did not know this until a couple of years ago! I used a .99 packet of curry in this dish but I finally found a curry at a local store!! One that I'm going to love!! Can't wait to try it.

Add chopped tomato. Or a can of crushed tomato. Or two cans of tomato sauce. I used 3 tomatoes from the farmer's market.

After you've added the tomoato and then the chicken, add coconut milk. This stuff is dangerous. But it's fantastic in smaller portions.


And there ya go! That's the basic recipe.
It should look like this:


I had a baked potato in the fridge so I added it.

I remembered I had some brocolli that needed to be used, so it got thrown in too.
So let it sit on low for about 30 min or until the veggies are cooked.

Hmmm . . . I really should've put this on a green plate. But I promise it was delicious. You can put it on brown rice or polenta, in some naan, flat bread, or eat it exactly the way I did: in a bowl, by itself.

Hope you enjoy!
