Ingredients
- 2 piece fresh ginger root, 1" cubes, coarsely minced
- 1/4 c. Water
- 2/3 c. Water
- 2 1/2 lb Chicken breasts, skinned
- 5 x Cloves garlic, chopped
- 7 ounce Cilantro, chopped
- 1/2 x Jalapeno, chopped
- 1/4 tsp Cayenne
- 2 tsp Cumin
- 1 tsp Coriander
- 1/2 tsp Turmeric
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 Tbsp. Lemon juice
Directions
- Put the ginger and 1/4 c. water into a blender or possibly processor. Blend till you have a paste.
- Put the oil in a wide, heavy, preferably nonstick pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is warm, put in as many chicken pcs as pan will hold in a single layer, and brown on both sides. Remove the chicken pcs with a slotted spoon and put them in a bowl. Brown all the chicken pcs this way.
- Add in the garlic to the warm oil. As soon as the pcs turn a medium-brown color, turn heat to medium and pour in the ginger paste. Stir-fry it for a minute. Now add in the fresh coriander, jalapeno, cayenne, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and salt. Stir and cook for a minute.
- Put in all the chicken pcs as well as any liquid which might have accumulated in the chicken bowl. Add in 2/3 c. water and the lemon juice. Stir and bring to a boil. Cover tightly, turn heat to low, and cook for 15 min.
- Turn the chicken pcs over. Cover again and cook anoter 10 to 15 min or possibly till the chicken is tender. If the sauce is too thin, uncover the pan and boil some of it away over a slightly higher heat.
