This is an easy dish to prepare - my daughter made it for me and I absolutely loved it.
Try it with a Steamed rice and Store bought Asian Slaw..a super combination.
Ingredients:
tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 – 3 tablespoons curry powder (see ALANNA’s TIPS)
1/2 - 1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound chicken thighs or breasts, cut in bite-size pieces (see TIPS)
29 ounces canned diced tomato
1 pound carrots, diced
8 ounces sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup ground cashews
1 cup nonfat yogurt
1/2 cup light coconut milk
8 ounces frozen peas
Preparation:
Melt the butter in a Dutch oven on medium high. Add the onion, garlic and ginger and cook until soft. Stir in the next 5 ingredients (curry through salt). Add the meat in batches, cooking each one through. Add the tomato, carrots, mushroom and cilantro. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. (Stop here if you’re cooking ahead.) Stir in remaining ingredients and heat through but do not boil, about 5 minutes. Serve over basmati rice.
