Ingredients

    3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    2-3 tbls Madra's Curry Powder
    2-3 tbls olive oil
    1/2 large chopped red onion
    2-3 tbls olive oil
    1 cup of white wine
    1 package white mushrooms
    1/2 cup almonds (optional)

Tips

I serve this with Couscous. I cook mine in chicken broth or pour off the watery mixture the chicken created.
You could also serve this with sauted spinach or saffron rice.


Directions

Combine into a large plastic zip-lock bag the following:
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes or pieces to your choosing. Mix the curry powder and olive oil and pour over chicken.
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 - 60 minutes. In a large skillet saute the onion in olive oil until they start to turn translucent then add chopped garlic for 30 seconds being careful not to burn it (it will be bitter if you do) add white wine and let alcohol cook off (a minute or two) add chicken (be sure temperature is med-high) add mushrooms (quartered) and salt and pepper.
In another large skillet (set on med-high) toast 1/4 cup of finely chopped almonds. After they have toasted about 3-4 minutes.
