Curried Chicken with Couscous


My parent's have taken Justin and I out to this amazing Indian restaurant twice this month so I thought I'd return the gesture and invite them over for curry.






Shopping List:
-1lb Chicken Breasts
-4 Medium Carrots
-1 Medium Onion
-Curry Powder
-Golden Raisins
-1 can Coconut Milk (13.5oz)
-1 box Plain Couscous
Step One: Heat some vegetable oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Cut Chicken into one inch pieces and place in bowl. Season with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Add to skillet and cook until no longer pink. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Step Two: As the chicken is cooking, peel carrots and slice thinly on a bias. Cut onion in half then slice lengthwise. Add oil to skillet and saute carrots and onion about 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
Step-Three: Add 2 teaspoons curry powder, 1/2 cup raisins, and coconut milk to skillet. Salt and pepper. Stir well. Add chicken and reduce heat to low and simmer 3-5 minutes or until sauce starts to thicken.
Step-Four: Prepare couscous according to directions. Once done, fluff with fork.
Step Five: To construct, divide couscous among plates and spoon curry over couscous.
