Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

4 cups chicken stock, divided
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 bay leaf, fresh or dried
1 1/2 cups long grain rice
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 1/2 pounds chicken breast cutlets, thinly sliced into 1/8-1/4 inch strips
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 red onion, quartered lengthwise then thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, grated or thinly sliced
3 portobello mushrooms, thinly sliced
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons curry powder, a couple of palmfuls
2 teaspoons garam masala, 2/3 palmful
1/4 to 1/3 cup Marsala wine, eyeball it
2 peaches, chopped
1 inch fresh ginger root, grated
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
1/2 cup pickled watermelon rind, chopped
1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts, toasted
A handful fresh flat parsley or cilantro, chopped
4 scallions, whites and greens, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of chicken stock, 1 cup water, 2 tablespoons butter and bay leaf to a boil in a medium pot with tight fitting lid. Add rice, stir and cover, reduce heat and cook 18 minutes.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons EVOO, 2 turns of the pan, in a large skillet over medium-high to high heat. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and brown 6 to 7 minutes then remove to a plate and add remaining EVOO, turn heat back a bit. When the oil ripples, add red onions, garlic and mushrooms. Cook mushrooms until dark and tender, 6 to 7 minutes, then season with salt and pepper, curry and garam masala. Add the chicken back to the pan. Deglaze the skillet with Marsala then add 2 cups chicken stock, reduce heat and simmer a few minutes for flavors to combine.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small pot over medium high heat. Add the peaches to the pan and season with ginger, salt and pepper. Cook peaches 3-4 minutes, add the vinegar and sugar and glaze the fruit then stir in the nuts, watermelon rind, cilantro and scallions and turn off heat.
  • Fluff rice with fork. Serve chicken on a bed of rice with chutney on top to garnish. YUM-O!

I wasn't sure about the combination of chicken and fruit, but I was pleasantly surprised. The peach-watermelon rind chutney really added a nice sweetness and acidity to the dish.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a bit too much red pepper flakes. Other than that, it was a great recipe!
