I used low-fat yogurt (well beaten) and chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. The result was excellent - light-tasting, spicy and colourful (and the leftovers reheated well next day in the microwave).

This was easy to make. It was very tasty and I found it even better warmed up the next day. I will definitely be making it again. Next time I may try a slightly hotter curry powder. The fennel seeds really make it and the smell is lovely. I served it over nutty brown rice. Delicious.
