day eighty: curry and conversation
I fell asleep on the couch from about 3:45 until 4:30 this afternoon in an effort to regenerate before cleaning and making dinner for me, Geo, and four friends. I woke up to HGTV and the sound of my kids out front in the yard visiting with some of their friends, and then I got busy vacuuming and dusting and unloading the dishwasher, knowing it would be filled to the brim twice more before the night was over.Geo entertained the gang while I finished up in the kitchen. They talked about new media, rhetoric, writing, as I made naan, broccoli, rice, sliced tomatoes, and curry chicken. I thought I would share the easy- peasy chicken secret with you. Please excuse the loose measurements, but I only cook with a recipe when it is something that will be baked :)
CURRY CHICKEN
- cook boneless, skinless chicken breasts in crockpot
- dice into bite-sized pieces
- in pan, heat a few tablespoons of oil, a big pinch of coriander, 6-8 cardamon pods, and a few teaspoons of curry powder
- add diced chicken and cook over medium high heat
- after chicken is coated with spices turn heat to low and add a large container of vanilla yogurt
- warm through and serve alongside rice

That sounds so yummy! Do you amke your own naan? I am the same way with things that aren't baked, whatever feels right.
Thanks for the easy peasy recipe! So nice to have friends to share curry and conversation.
p.s. Glad you had a nap.
The naan is easy too. Let me know if you want that recipe;)
Sounds delicious! And I'd love your naan recipe. :)
Glad you got a nap.
It is fun to have people over.
and I love curry, so I will be trying that receipe.
Yum-o as Rachael Ray always says
why do cooking shows always make things look so easy and they are NOT
I can't wait to get home and try the recipe out. I'm yearning to spend time in my kitchen again and that chicken sounds so yummy!
Mmmmm, sounds so good. Both the nap and the food. :)
Oh, I'm definitely going to try this! (if I can find cardamom pods over here, which I highly doubt, but I might just omit them. . .) Sounds simple and yummy. Just my thing. And it'll make me feel like I ate dinner at your house (except that if you made it, it would taste more of cardamom. . .)
