Haandi Chicken

This recipe comes from a good friend whose judgement I generally trust, however, I was skeptical. I needn't have been. Ah-May-Zing!
We always double this recipe, but we have a billion children.

Pardon the terrible picture. Hey... even ugly food can taste good!


Haandi Chicken
1lb chicken, cubed
2 onions, diced
1 Tbsp olive oil
6 oz coconut milk
2 Tbsp sour cream (we use Plain Greek Yogurt as it doesn't bother my Lactose Intolerants)
1 tsp each: coriander, chili powder, garam masala, ginger, garlic salt
1/4 tsp cardamom
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
8 oz pineapple pieces
1/2 c cashews
Red pepper flakes

Cook onions in olive oil over medium heat until just tender. Add chicken and cook until browned. Don't over cook (about 2-3 minutes). Add all spices except cilantro and pepper flakes. Add coconut milk, sour cream and pineapple. Simmer on low about 4-5 minutes but don't let it come to a full boil. 1 minute before serving add cilantro and red pepper flakes. Serve over rice. Garnish with cashews (my favorite part!).

  1. This looks so easy and sooooo good. And thanks for the Greek Yogurt tip. We have tons of it kicking around all the time, and I never have anything creative to do with it.
