Poulet au kari

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 3-pound chicken
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Butter
¾ cup Onion; finely chopped
½ cup Celery; finely chopped
1 teaspoon Garlic; finely minced
2 tablespoons Curry powder
1 Bay leaf
1 cup Apples; cubed
⅓ Banana; finely diced
2 teaspoons Tomato paste
1½ cup Chicken broth
½ cup Heavy cream

Directions

Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a heavy skillet and add the chicken pieces, skin side down. Cook until golden on one side, about 5 minutes, and add the onion, ceery, and garlic. Cook briefly and sprinkle with curry powder. Add the bay leaf, apples and bananas. Cook about 5 minutes and add the tomato paste, stirring it around.

Add the chicken broth and stir to blend. Cover and cook 15 minutes longer or until chicken is tender. Remove the chicken pieces. Strain the sauce through a sieve, pushing to extract as much of the solids as possible.

Reheat and add the cream. Return the chicken to the sauce, bring to a boil and serve hot with rice.
