There are so many varieties of this – this is an easy and delicious one.
3 tablespoons peanut oil
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips
1 tablespoon curry
3 teaspoons fresh minced garlic
1 teaspoon fresh minced ginger
¼ teaspoon crushed red chilies
2 (14-ounce) cans sliced potatoes, drained
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup frozen peas (I prefer the petite pois)
¼ cup salted peanuts for garnish (optional)
Pour oil into wok or large skillet and heat to medium high. Add chicken, curry, garlic, ginger and chilies and sauté until chicken is browned. Add potatoes and continue to sauté – about another 5 minutes until they start to get crusty. Stir in coconut milk, tomato paste and peas. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Top with peanuts, if desired. Serve over rice – long-grain, jasmine or basmati.
