Haute Habanero Chicken Curry Recipe chubbybunny
- 4 TB Veggie Oil
- 2.5 lbs chicken breasts (with skin is the best b/c it keeps the meat moist)
- 2 Tb of fresh ginger
- 1 habanero chili pepper
- 4 tsp. madras curry powder
- 1 bunch of cilantro
- Juice of 1 Lime
- 1 cup cauliflower florets
- Salt to taste (1-2tsp recommended)
- 1/2 tsp. white pepper
- In a large skillet (enough room to fit all chicken breasts), heat oil on medium-high.
- When hot, add chicken and brown on both sides for 10-12 minutes.
- While chicken is cooking, mince ginger and habanero pepper into a paste.
- Chop up cilantro leaves and stalks.
- Squeeze lime juice into a cup.
- Remove chicken from pan.
- Add 4 Tb water, ginger/habanero mixture, spices, salt, and white pepper to the pan.
- Stir for a few seconds.
- Then add the cilantro and 3/4 cup water and lime juice.
- Put the chicken back in the pan and toss in the cauliflower.
- Bring everything to a boil.
- Then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 40 minutes.
- If it looks like things are getting too dry, add more water.
- About half-way through the cooking, flip the chicken breasts.
- Spoon over rice or couscous.
- You can also chop up fresh cilantro to serve.
- I like serving this with a simple raita salad to cool things down (dice 1/2 cup cucumbers, dice 1 tomato, and dice 1/4 of an onion, squeeze 1/2 a lime, then stir in 1/3 a cup of yogurt and top off with some cilantro stalks).
