Simple Chicken Curry

{Simple Chicken Curry} 

This was my very first time making any kind of Indian food (or eating it for that matter!) and it was simple and delicious. If you haven’t ever made any Indian food before; this is where you should start, the taste is very subtle.

{Ingredients} 

• 2-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into ½ inch cubes
• A drizzle of coconut oil (or olive oil)
• 3-4 tablespoons of red curry paste
• 2 ½ cloves of garlic
• 1 (14oz) can of coconut milk, shaken (you can find this in the aisle by the Asian food, most stores carry it, you just have to find it)
• 1 (14.5oz) can of diced tomatoes
• 1 (14oz) can of tomato sauce
• 3 tablespoons of sugar

{Directions}

1.  Put the oil in a large pot or deep frying pan (it has to be deep enough to hold all of the tomatoes and sauce that you are going to add)

2.  Add curry paste and garlic and simmer, stirring very often for about 3 minutes

3.  Over medium heat add the chicken to the curry mixture and stir the chicken around to coat it

4.  Cook for 10 minutes until the center is no longer pink

5.  Pour in the shaken coconut milk, tomatoes, tomato sauce and sugar, stir it all in until everything is mixed together well

6.  Simmer on low heat, uncovered for 50-60 minutes, stirring frequently
