I made a few adjustments to the recipe (mainly because it served 4-6 and I wanted it to serve 2-4), but I'm very pleased with the way it turned out. Careful, this version has a bit of a kick.
Chicken Curry with Cashews
Adapted from January 2005 Gourmet
Ingredients:
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter (1/4 cup)
- 1 large red onion (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
- 3 or 4 skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 tomato (diced)
- 1/4 cup cashews (finely chopped)
And finally because I'm devoting this post to cashews, did you know...
- Cashews are in the same family as poison ivy and poison sumac. We can eat them though because it's found in the shell oil and not the nut itself.
- Although when it comes to cooking, a cashew is a nut, in the botanical sense it is actually a seed.
- There is such thing as a cashew apple. It's an accessory fruit that's pear-shaped and yellow.
Yep, when it comes to cashews, I guess I'm a little bit nuts.
