TURKEY WITH CURRIED CREAM SAUCE
Give plain old turkey a brand-new spin with classic Indian spices. My version's pretty mild, but if you're in the mood for fire, add extra curry and a shake or two of cayenne pepper. This dish disappears fast, no matter who's at the table. -Lori Lockrey, Scarborough, Ontario

CHEF JOHN'S PEANUT CURRY CHICKEN
I decided to not follow any specific recipe from any particular country or culture, but instead I made a simple composite of every peanut curry I've ever come across. I didn't use coconut milk, as I feel that's a little too sweet and rich for the peanut butter. I loved how this came out, and I can't imagine it being any richer.

TURKEY WITH CURRIED PEANUT SAUCE
This is one of my favorite recipes from Better Homes and Garden's New Dieter's Cookbook. The best part of this dish is that it is only 184 delicious calories a serving. You can also pair the zesty peanut sauce with broiled or grilled pork chops. Top each serving with a few crushed roasted peanuts, if desired and serve on a bed of rice with some steamed broccoli spears.
