2 - I had no raisins, but I did have candied ginger. It worked great! I figured that the raisins added a sweetness, and the ginger would, too. I also switched the moment I add the curry powder.
3 - I ended up just replacing the original chicken breast-only recipe on LaMouffetteGourmande with this one.
2 Tbsps. flour
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 chicken, cut up into 8 pieces
2 Tbsps mild flavoured vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. generic curry powder
1 onion, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1/3 cup raisins OR candied ginger
1 1/2 Tbsps tomato paste
garnish - chopped fresh cilantro
garnish - plain yogurt
- Cut up your chicken into 8 pieces and remove the skin.
- In a paper or plastic bag, mix together the flour, salt and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken and shake well to coat.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
- Dump the chicken and any remaining flour into the pan and cook until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the onion and garlic to the pan, adding a little more oil if necessary, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the curry powder and toss to coat then add the broth, raisins, and tomato paste (it doesn't matter if the onion is completely cooked).
- Return the chicken to the pan and simmer for 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the breast registers 165F or juices run clear.
- If necessary, remove the chicken and cook down the sauce to the desired thickness.
- Garnish with cilantro and a dollop of plain yogurt.
- Serve over the rice.
