INGREDIENTS
Protein
- 🍗 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast
Fats and Oils
- 🧈 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Spices and Herbs
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Vegetables
- 🧅 1 cup onion
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger
- 🧄 2 cloves garlic
- 🍅 1 cup tomato
- 2 cups green beans
Grains
- 1 cup jasmine rice
Sauces and Liquids
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
STEPS
Pat chicken pieces dry; season with salt and pepper.
Melt butter in a large casserole or Dutch oven, and sprinkle with turmeric. Add chicken pieces in a single layer and cook over medium-high heat until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brown the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm.
To the same pot, add onion, ginger, and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to brown, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, green beans, curry powder, cinnamon, cumin, and rice. Stir constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Return chicken and any accumulated juices to the pot, and add bay leaves, fish sauce, and chicken stock. Be sure to stir up all the browned bits from the bottom of the pot into the sauce.
Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to low; simmer for 10 minutes.
Adjust the lid to partially cover and vent, and continue to simmer until rice is tender, 10 to 15 minutes longer.
Remove from heat, uncover, and let stand for 5 minutes. Serve warm, with raita as a garnish, if desired.
