This recipe is from Cooking Light and is one of my favorite chicken dishes. Yellow lentils (dal) are available where ever Indian foods are sold. Yellow split peas can be substituted. My experience has been that either one takes longer than 25minutes to reach tenderness, so I cook them ahead of time in a crock pot. Red lentils cook much quicker and can also be substituted. Serve over rice or Chinese egg noodles.
