SPICY INDIAN CHICKEN AND MANGO CURRY

Spicy Indian Chicken and Mango Curry image

I love Indian food, this recipe developed after falling in love with the dish at a small family owned Indian restaurant near my home. After tweaking a few things, I think I have come up with a great copy-cat version. The curry paste can easily be substituted with the mild version for those with more sensitive palates. Serve over Basmati rice. I hope it meets your liking. Enjoy!

ISLAND COCONUT CURRY SAUCE

Island Coconut Curry Sauce image

Brush this slightly sweet sauce on shrimp or chicken before and during grilling. The recipe makes enough for 1 1/2 pounds of chicken or shrimp, with some left over to pass at the table. DO NOT substitute coconut milk for the cream of coconut. Coco Lopez is usually found with drink mixers in the grocery, I have found other brand for much less at my local Asian markets. You can also use as a marinade.
