SUPER SIMPLE, SUPER QUICK CHICKEN CURRY AND RICE

Steps:

• Dissolve chicken base in hot water (skip this step if using stock).
• Pour dissolved base/stock in 2" deep pan.
• Add chicken to pan and place on medium-high heat.
• Add remaining ingredients EXCEPT rice.
• Cook chicken uncovered, stirring often to coat with spices.
• Remove chicken from heat and cover to keep warm. You will use the liquid from the pan in the next step.
• Add rice to separate pan and prepare as directed, BUT instead of using water to cook, add the drippings from the chicken pan. I usually get about 1/2 cup of drippings and then top that off with the water necessary to cook the rice. The rice I use needs 1 1/3 cup of water for 1/2 cup uncooked rice. This will yield 2 cups of cooked rice.
• When rice is finished cooking, spoon rice back into chicken pan and place on medium-high heat for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
