Chicken in Curry Sauce With Fruit

Submitted by greenery

"This is a recipe from Austria. It's nothing like authentic curry dishes from India, but it is very nice, with a good curry taste that doesn't burn the palate. The fruit really makes the dish."

Very easy to put together, a mild curry suitable for the whole family.

This is a very palatable dish. The fruit in the dish blends together to form one lovely flavor and compliments the curry chicken beautifully. Not being a huge curry fan, I can't wait to prepare this again. I served over rice along with a carrot dish.
