Ingredients
-
2 Chicken Breasts
1 can Coconut Milk
1 Onion, chopped
2 Jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
3 tomatos, seeded and chopped
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp ground coriander seed
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp minced ginger
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper
Directions
In a medium bowl, mix the cumin, cayenne pepper, turmeric, and coriander.
Place the chicken in the bowl, season with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the chicken in the skillet. Cook 10 to 15 minutes on each side, until no longer pink and juices run clear. Remove from heat and set aside.
Heat the remaining olive oil in the skillet. Cook and stir the onion, ginger, jalapeno peppers, and garlic 5 minutes, or until tender. Mix in the tomatoes and continue cooking 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and add spice mixture. Add the chicken back (I cut each breast in half) in and let simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Enjoy!
