INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 chicken breasts
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 medium onion, halved and sliced
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 14-ounce can coconut milk
1 teaspoon pure honey
8 cups coarsely chopped kale or chard, tough stems removed
1 tablespoon lime juice, plus more to taste
PREPARATION
Combine curry powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Blot chicken dry with a paper towel and cut into 1-inch cubes; toss the chicken in a medium bowl with 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture.
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring every 2 minutes, until browned, 6 to 8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, ginger and the remaining spice mixture; cook, stirring, until the vegetables are lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add coconut milk and honey; bring to a boil. Add half the kale (or chard) and cook, stirring, until slightly wilted, about 1 minute. Stir in the rest of the greens and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Return the chicken to the pan, cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until the greens are tender, 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat and stir in lime juice.
I found this recipe on eatingwell.com, the original recipe used tofu and delicate squash but I am not a fan of either. I went with chicken instead and the whole family loved it. I served the chicken and kale curry with brown rice and it was a hit. I will definitely add this one to my list of recipes.
