Here is an unbelievably easy though super flavorful weeknight dish that's bound to become a household favorite. Just toss boneless chicken breasts (chicken thighs would work here, too) and zucchini with curry powder, olive oil, salt and pepper then brown everything over medium heat in a skillet. Empty the pan, then make a quick sauce of shallots, chicken broth, heavy cream, olive oil and butter. Return the chicken and zucchini to the pot and warm through. That's it. Serve it over rice or couscous, or with a side of mashed potatoes.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/4 pounds)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 zucchini, about 1/2 pound, ends trimmed
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Put chicken pieces in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon of the oil, salt and pepper.
  • Trim off the ends of the zucchini and cut it into 12 rounds, each about 1/2-inch thick. Add zucchini and curry powder to the chicken and blend well with the fingers to coat the pieces evenly.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a heavy skillet and add the chicken pieces in one layer. Scatter the zucchini rounds between the chicken pieces, preferably in one layer. Cook over moderately high heat until chicken pieces are nicely browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the chicken pieces and the zucchini rounds and cook over moderately low heat about 5 minutes.

CURRIED CHICKEN BREAST



Curried Chicken Breast image

Loosely based on a recipe I cut from the Daily Herald years ago. I added this, omitted that until it was just right. I use RedGold brand of tomatoes with HOT chili peppers, use whatever level of heat you enjoy. You can swap out for plain tomatoes and leave out the cayenne and it's still yummy. Use a large high sided skillet to contain spatters. I use my non-stick dutch oven. Pre-measuring everything helps.
