This is not going to be traditional, but all of the flavors are there. It was a see what's in the fridge kind of recipe that ended up here.
2 whole chicken breasts cut in to bite sized chunks Large handful maybe 3/4 cup or more grape tomatoes 1/2 onion cut in quarter moons (onion cut in quarters and sliced) pinch of sugar 1 tablespoon candied or pickled jalapenos (or a fresh jalapeno diced) 4 cloves garlic minced 2-3 inch piece of ginger grated 1 tablespoon garam masala 1/4-1/2 cup pea milk or cream or yogurt 2 tablespoons nut butter (I used peanut butter because we have it) In a large bowl, mix garlic, ginger, garam masala and a dollop of milk or yogurt to make a paste. Add chicken to the bowl and massage the marinade into the chicken. Set aside. Put tomatoes, and jalapeno if you're using fresh, in a large dry skillet and cook tossing to move them around, on high heat until tomatoes are blackened a bit and blistered. Remove from pan. Add olive oil and onions and turn heat to medium low. Cook the onions slowly. As they start to become translucent add a pinch of sugar. Continue to cook until they turn brown and get good and carmelized. Remove onions. Add more oil to the pan and cook the chicken until cooked through. If you want to peel the tomaotes you can. I like the skins. Add the tomatoes to the chicken and schmoosh them with the back of your spoon. Add jalapenos, onions, and peanut butter, Stir to melt the butter. Add enough milk or yogurt to make a sauce and then add some hot water. Stir and simmer until all the flavors get to know each other. We served ours over rice with some naan on the side. So yummy!!!

AuthorI'm not a chef. I have no training. I just really like food. I grew up eating processed food and over time, as a grown up, decided I wanted to cook the kinds of foods I got in restaurants. I have one problem. The doctor put me on a low sodium diet. You'll find there very little if any salt/sodium in this recipes. Just add to your own taste. I will probably do things wrong/differently on this website, but hopefully we'll all learn from each other! Archives
