GREEN CHICKEN CURRY (FOOD NETWORK STAR - AARTI)

Steps:

• In a food processor, puree the cilantro, mint, red onion, ginger, salt, and pepper. Puree on high until smooth. While the processor is running, add 1/4 cup water and blend until the mixture is a thick paste. Set aside.
• In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add shallot and cook, stirring often, until golden brown.
• Add the spices and cook for 30 seconds.
• Add the cilantro puree to the pot and cook, stirring often until it deepens in color and aroma. It should look shiny, and little droplets of oil will appear on the surface.
• Add the chicken, coating each piece in the puree and stirring often. Continue to cook for 5 minutes, so the puree adheres to the chicken.
• Add 1 1/2 cups water, or just enough to cover the chicken, and add the vinegar. Bring to a boil, and reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is tender and sauce has slightly thickened, about 20 to 25 minutes.
• Remove the pot from heat and swirl in the yogurt. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
• Serve over basmati rice or naan bread.
