this is a recipie for an awesome chicken dish:
ingredients
3 whole chicken breasts, no skin
poaching liquid*
2 mangoes peeled, pitted and cut into bit-sized pieces
1/2 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1 c. corsely chopped toasted cashews
2 tsp chopped cilantro
1/3 c sour cream
1/3 c. mayo
*poaching liquid:
4c. chicken stock
1 celery leaf
1 parsley sprig
pinch of salt
1 tbsp lemon juice
i'm hoping you read through entire recepies first before setting up ingredients, etc. because, i will now add my changes as i go along with the directions.
directions
poach your chicken breasts (cut after cooking, less mess and possible cross-contamination) in the poaching liquid for about 10-15 mins, until no longer pink. i added a teaspoon of chopped garlic, chives and a dash or two of black pepper. i did not add the pinch of salt as per directions because the chicken broth i use is generally salty enough. i also added my cilantro at this stage so the flavour would be lighter..because cilantro for me is quite a large taste.
while chicken is cooking, peel and cut mango. drain chicken from broth and place in a serving dish. add mango.
mix sour cream, mayo (i use miracle whip), cumin and curry, pour onto chicken and mango.
i chose not to use the cashews because i do not like cashews. i might try almonds, but i sprinkled flax seed and that tasted rather nice.
chill the dish for 20-30 mins.
yum. serve with brown rice, your tastebuds (and other bodily parts) will thank you.
