Chicken Curry With Peas and Coriander

Submitted by Studentchef

"This recipe came with a list of other recipes in an advertisement. It is a pitch, though for a line of ingredients owned and operated by Presidents Choice, which is mainly produced in Montreal. Zaar doesn't accept some of the ingredients on the list. So the canola oil, peas, and 8-vegetable cocktail, it all belongs to the President's Brand (PC) line of foods. Also, Zaar does not recognize the 8-vegetable cocktail, so I'm writing it here."

I made as posted, except I reduced the amount of onion a bit. I used V8 for the vegetable juice cocktail. Also, I used frozen peas instead of canned ones and added them a bit before the V8 to allow them to heat up. This is a very easy recipe to make on a weeknight. Lots of flavor for a short cooking time. Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT8.

We eat a lot of curries and quite a few of them are ground meat (keema) and pea ones. For some reason, this one was really, really delicious. I'm not sure if the difference was using chicken rather than lamb, or the tomato juice and celery seed I used as a sub for the vegie cocktail juice. Whatever it was, this was great. I used frozen baby peas not canned.
