Curry Chicken and Rice image

I updated this chicken and rice dish by adding veggies and cashews to give it fresh and crunchy appeal. The green chilies in the tomatoes give it just the right little kick, but if you really like spice, add fresh, diced jalapeƱo. -Denise Klibert, Shreveport, Louisiana
