Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 cups purple rice, preferably Alter Eco, rinsed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 can (14 ounces) peeled chopped tomatoes
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 pound), cut into strips
2 tablespoons curry
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 pinches ground cinnamon
Cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place rice in a medium saucepan along with 1 3/4 cups water. Bring to a boil over high heat; immediately reduce to low heat. Cover and let simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until golden brown. Add tomatoes, chicken, and sprinkle over curry powder; season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring, until mixture has thickened and chicken is cooked through, 15 to 25 minutes. Add coconut milk and stir until well combined; cook 5 minutes more. Sprinkle over cinnamon.
  • Divide rice evenly among 4 serving plates; top with chicken mixture. Garnish with cilantro and serve immediately.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken turned out tough and the sauce was watery. I won't be making this recipe again.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was very flavorful. I would recommend cooking the chicken for a shorter amount of time next time.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. It needed more spices and herbs to give it more flavor.

This dish was a bit spicy for me, but it was still very flavorful. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some roasted chicken I had, and it turned out great. The sauce is very flavorful and the jasmine rice is a nice touch.
