Honey Coconut Curry Chicken

I love curry. Brent not so much. But I squeeze it in our menu once in a great while :) Tonight I made a curry that really I just threw together so this recipe may not have the exact measurements I used but I'll try to come close!

Honey Coconut Curry Chicken 

1-2 tbps. olive oil
1 1/2-2 tbsp. curry
1/2 onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb. chicken breast, cut into 1/2 in. chunks
1 1/2 c. coconut milk
1 c. canned diced tomatoes, drained
2-3 tbsp. tomato paste 
2-3 tbsp. honey

Heat the oil and curry powder in a large skillet for 2 minutes. Stir in onion and garlic and saute for 1 minute (I actually added a little chicken broth here because I didn't want the onion and garlic to burn from no liquid, again, part of my throw it together-ness). Add chicken and cook about 7-10 minutes. Stir in coconut milk, tomatoes, tomato paste and honey. If you want to thicken your curry like I did just mix 2-3 tbsp. of water with 1 tbsp. of cornstarch and stir into the curry. Simmer about 30 mins. Serve over rice.



I used a different curry recipe as a base but I changed a few things, so if you want the real deal, try this Curried Coconut Chicken recipe instead.  



Egg update: I've had eggs for four days now, no reaction. Hmmmf... well who knows what Sawyer reacted to in the bread but I guess I'll just stay away from Udi's GF bread. I don't want to say I'm completely in the clear, I'll give it two weeks before I'll say for sure he's good with egg.

I got my shipment of cloth diapers last week! Ready or not.... I'm still trying to get the right fit on him because he's peed out the top and sides. His last couple changes have been good so I think I'm getting it! Brent made me this super sweet "clothesline" for drying the diapers.
