Chicken Hurry Curry

Another recipe that will have dinner on the table in less than 20 minutes, including prep! My sister’s former co-worker and friend, Jane, has an arsenal of amazing recipes. This is one of hers! I usually double this recipe so there are plenty of leftovers. Our family likes a little kick, so I use smoked paprika along with the curry powder, but you can use sweet paprika as well. Delicious served over white rice, cous cous or riced cauliflower (low-carb!).

I prefer breast meat, but you could use boneless, skinless thighs too. Use full-fat Fage plain yogurt and full-fat Hellman’s – quality ingredients make a difference! Don’t like raisins? Leave them out, but they add a sweet note to offset the spice, and golden raisins are delicious in this recipe. Serve with some broccoli or asparagus on the side and you’ve got dinner!
