I got this from my friend Laura at a dinner party where we all shared favorite dishes. This one is really good.
1 T olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 t salt
2 T curry powder
14-oz can coconut milk
1 c canned, diced tomatoes (or crushed)
2 T tomato paste
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast
3 C packed spinach or chopped cauliflower (opt)
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and salt and saute over medium for about 7 minutes, until translucent. Add the curry powder and saute for an additional minute, until the spice fully coats the onion.
Incorporate the coconut milk, tomatoes, and tomato paste into the mixture. Stir occasionally for 5 minutes, until sauce slightly thickens. Fold in the chicken and summer for 5-6 minutes, or until cooked through.
Stir the spinach into the mixture and cook for 3 minutes or until wilted. Or stir in chopped cauliflower, cook until softened.
Good on rice or quinoa.
