Ingredients
  • 2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2-1/2 to 3 pounds chicken breast halves or thighs
  • Note: I prefer to leave the skin on but you can remove it if you are watching your caloric intake.
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • A handful of golden raisins can be added but this is optional
  • 2 Tablespoons water
  • 1-1/2 cups sour cream (reduced fat can also be used)
  • 3 heaping teaspoons curry powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Papaya-Apricot Chutney - below
  • or prepared chutney
  • 6 cups hot Basmati rice
  • Coriander or parsley, chopped
  • I prefer to use fresh Parsley as a garnish and I serve Naan on the side.
  • Note: 2-1/2 pounds of lamb (preferrably shoulder cut) can be substituted for the chicken. If so, you must increase the cooking time to 60 minutes or until the lamb is tender.

Directions
  1. Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Cook chicken in oil about 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
  3. Drain fat from skillet
  4. Sprinkle chicken with salt.
  5. Add onion, garlic and water to chicken in skillet.
  6. Heat to boiling.
  7. Reduce heat.
  8. Cover and simmer about 20 minutes or until juice of chicken is no longer pink when center of thickest pieces are pierced
  9. Remove chicken from skillet and keep warm.
  10. Pour liquid from skillet into bowl; skim off fat
  11. Return 1/4 cup liquid to skillet and discard any remaining liquid.
  12. Stir in sour cream, curry powder, ginger and cumin.
  13. Heat stirring constantly, until hot.
  14. Pour sauce over chicken.
  15. Serve chicken or lamb with Papaya-Apricot Chutney and Basmati rice
  16. Papaya or Mango - Apricot Chuteny:
  17. Note: I prefer Mango and Apricot
  18. 2 ripe medium sized papayas/mangos (1 pound each)
  19. Peel papayas/mangos and cut in half.
  20. Scoop out seeds from the papaya or pit the mango.
  21. Note: I sometimes add 2 apples, peeled and chopped and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
  22. Dice the fruit and add approximately 5-6 chopped/diced apricots or you can add 3 Tbsps. of apricot preserves.
  23. Place in saucepan and gently warm.
  24. Serve as a condiment with the curried chicken or lamb.
