Curried Chicken With Pears Recipes

Steps:

• Place a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. While the pan heats up, finely chop the onion, about 1 heaping cup. Add the canola oil to the pan and swirl to coat. Add the onion and a large pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, finely grate the garlic into the tomato paste and add to the onions along with the curry powder, garam masala and 1/4 cup water. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the chicken stock and bring to a strong simmer. Cut the chicken tenders in half crosswise, sprinkle liberally with salt and stir into the sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to a low simmer and stir in the peas and 1/4 cup yogurt. Cook until the peas are just warmed through, about 1 minute. Season to taste with additional salt if needed. Divide among 4 bowls. Top each with the remaining yogurt and serve with warm naan bread.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add to the pot.

• Stir the chickpeas and their liquid into the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low; cover and cook until the chicken is tender, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, puree the remaining garlic, the cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the lime juice and vinegar in a mini food processor or blender until a paste forms. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the cilantro paste; cook until dark green, about 1 minute. Transfer to a medium bowl and add the coleslaw mix; season with salt and toss to coat.
