Quick Indian Chicken

"I defrosted some chicken thighs and just did not know what to do with them. I'm on a serious health kick at the moment so it had to be something low calorie. This is what I came up with. I imagine that chicken breasts, or pieces would work just as well. If you use chicken pieces on the bone, adjust your cooking time as it will take a little longer."

  1. This is a very good recipe that was enjoyed by all! I followed this exactly, except I had to watch adding the seasonings prior to the chicken, as it seemed to brown really, really quickly and I was afraid that the chicken would burn so I backed down the heat and went from there. Next time I might brown the chicken first in the oil, and then add the seasonings, and the onion. Either way, the taste is fabulous and is just marvelous served atop some jasmine rice. The seasonings are just as terrific too! I love the use of coriander, cumin, curry, and cardamom. Thank you for posting such a great recipe that we enjoyed! Made for *Garden & Spices* Cardamom Tag game. February 2009.
