Country Captain Chicken

Here is a great recipe that's a little bit different. It's really tasty during the winter months.

Here's what you'll need:

1 pound boneless chicken breast
1.5 teaspoons curry powder
2.5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 can (14-16 ounces) stewed tomatoes, with juice
.5 cup raisins
.5 teaspoon salt
.25 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Cut each piece of chicken crosswise in half. Sprinkle the curry powder over both sides. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the chicken and cook over medium heat, turning once, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side.

Add the stewed tomatoes, raisins, salt, pepper and 1/3 cup of water. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to med-low and cook until the chicken is white throughout, 3-5 minutes.

Remove the chicken to a serving dish. Boil the sauce until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes. Pour over the chicken and serve.


This dish goes really well with arugula salad.
