Coconut Chicken Curry
In a bowl, toss the chicken with 1 tsp. curry power, salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. oil over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned. I cubed my chicken instead of slicing it.
Transfer to a plate. Add remaining oil and onion and cook until just soft. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Stir in sweet potatoes and cook for 3 minutes. Add remaining curry, mixing well. Next add the coconut milk and brown sugar and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until sweet potatoes are tender.
I precooked my sweet potatoes until firm, let them cool and then chopped them up. I only had to cook them for a couple of minutes with the peas. Remove from heat and stir in basil.
You can serve it with Garlic Naan. You can find this in most grocery stores. Mine is usually located near the produce or deli.
Garlic Naan:
Cook 2 cloves of garlic in 4 tsp. of olive oil over medium heat
for 5 minutes. Brush on 2 pieces of naan and bake at 400 degrees until crispy 2 to 3 minutes. Serves 4.
