Ingredients

  • vegetable oil

  • 10 to 12 skinless, boneless chicken thighs

  • 1 onion

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced, or 2 tsp bottled chopped garlic

  • 1/2 cup water

  • 284-mL can undiluted cream of mushroom soup, cream of potato or cream of tomato

  • 1 cup bottled mango chutney, preferably spicy

  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro, or basil (optional)

Instructions

  • Lightly coat a large frying pan with oil. Set over medium-high heat. When hot, add chicken. If pan is not large enough to hold all of chicken, cook in 2 batches. Cook until lightly golden, 3 minutes per side. Add oil as needed. Meanwhile, finely chop onion. Remove chicken to a large plate. Add more oil, if needed, to pan along with onion and garlic. Stir often until onion starts to soften, 3 minutes. Add water. Using a wooden spoon, scrape up and stir in brown bits from pan bottom. Stir in soup and chutney. Bring to a boil over high heat. Return chicken and juices. Stir.

  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until chicken is springy when pressed, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn partway through. Sprinkle with coriander. Great with rice.
