  • Step #7 Fry lightly peppered chicken breasts till cooked through.
  • Step #8 Place sauteed peppers & onions on bowls of rice & spoon curry sauce over rice.
  • Step #9 You can either use curry sauce to lightly flavor rice or more as a soupy type mixture.
  • Step #10 I use short grain brown rice -- but any type is fine.
  • Step #11 Add cut chicken breast or other meat/tofu if desired.
