Ingredients
8 plum tomatoes
1 large onion
1 tbsp butter
2 tbsp curry paste
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp salt
1 whole cooked deli chicken, or 4 uncooked, skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 large sweet potatoes
284-mL can undiluted chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Coarsely chop tomatoes and set aside. Finely chop onion. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, curry paste, cumin and salt. Stir often until onion softens, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, discard skin from deli chicken. Tear meat into large chunks. Or slice uncooked breasts into thick strips.
Add tomatoes to onion. Stir often until they start to soften, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, peel potatoes and cut into 1-1/2-inch (3.5-cm) chunks. Pour broth into pan, then stir in potatoes. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Stir occasionally until potatoes are almost tender, 15 minutes. Add cooked or raw chicken. Cover and cook until potatoes are tender and raw chicken is cooked, 5 to 10 more minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in coriander. Serve over rice. Great with a spinach-and-mushroom salad and warm roti for dipping.
