Introduction
Stopping in at a deli in a high-end grocery store, I was hungry for lunch and enticed by the smells coming from the soup and salad bar. This soup was new for me, and beyond delicious so I ran right home and looked up the recipe to try my hand at it!I use to say that I wasn't a fan of curry...but I am finding that after starting Spark People, that trying new foods can be fun...and that even curry is delicious!

1/2 red onion, sliced and chopped thin
1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2" pieces
