Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2 pounds), cut into 1/2-inch chunks or strips
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 teaspoons cayenne pepper (substitute paprika pepper if you don't like the heat)
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk, light or regular
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons honey
Hot cooked brown rice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 tablespoon coconut oil
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 teaspoons cayenne pepper (substitute paprika pepper if you don't like the heat)
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk, light or regular
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons honey
Hot cooked brown rice
Directions:
Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat oil, curry powder, and cayenne pepper in a large skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat for two minutes, until fragrant (but don’t let it burn). Turn the heat up to medium and stir in onions and garlic and cook 7-9 minutes more or until onions are very clear. Add chicken, tossing lightly to coat with curry oil and cook for a couple of minutes. Add coconut milk, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and honey into the pan, and stir to combine. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes or until sauce thickens and making sure chicken is cooked through and no longer pink. Serve with brown rice and garnish with cilantro, if desired.
