Yellow Curry Chicken

A dear friend (and old roomie) of mine reads our recipe blog (see? we have fans! hi Mel!) and has a few of her own "tried and true" recipes she wanted to contribute. Here's the first one ...

2 lbs chicken, diced
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1.5 TB vegetable oil
2 TB curry powder
1/2 onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can coconut milk
1 can stewed tomatoes
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
3 TB sugar

Cook curry powder in oil for approx. 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic, cook until soft. Add raw diced chicken and cook thoroughly. Add coconut milk, tomatoes, tomato sauce & sugar.

Cover and simmer 30-40 minutes.

* If the curry sauce isn't as thick as you'd like, prepare corn starch in cold water and stir into hot mixture.
