Curry-And-Yogurt Braised Chicken Thighs image

This recipe is from Food and Wine. I love curries, but so many of my recipes are too labor intensive for a week-night meal. This is relatively quick and easy. It's a great summer-time meal, when you can use farm-fresh produce. When fresh corn is not available, substitute 1/2 C frozen corn.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup canola oil
1 1/2 lbs boneless chicken thighs
salt and pepper, for seasoning
all-purpose flour, for dusting
1 tablespoon gingerroot, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 serrano chili, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and cut into thin strips
1 tablespoon Madras curry powder
1 lb tomatoes, cored and coarsely chopped
1 ear of corn, kernels cut off
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • In a large, deep skillet, heat oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper and lightly dust with flour. Add chicken to skillet and cook over high heat, turning once, for 6 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate.

This dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This recipe was a disaster. The chicken was tough and the sauce was bland.

I found that the chicken was a little dry. I think I might try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

This dish was a little too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I'm not used to eating a lot of curry.

I wasn't sure how the yogurt would taste in this dish, but I was pleasantly surprised. It added a nice tanginess that balanced out the richness of the chicken.
