Food on Fridays: Chicken Curry w/Sweet Potatoes

fof

(alternative button below)

Here at the Food on Fridays carnival, any post remotely related to food is welcome. Recipes are enjoyed, but you can just spell your name with macaroni noodles, take a picture, publish it on your blog, and link right up to the carnival. That’s fine with us.In other words, the Food on Fridays parameters are not at all narrow. I think of it as a virtual pitch-in where everyone brings something to share; even if the content of one item is unrelated to the rest, we sample it all anyway and have a great time.When your Food on Fridays contribution is ready, just grab the broccoli button (the big one above or the new smaller option at the bottom) to paste at the top of your post and join us through Mr. Linky.Here’s a Mr. Linky tutorial:

Write up a post, publish, then return here and click on Mr. Linky below. A screen will pop up where you can type in your blog name and paste in the url to your own Food on Fridays post (give us the exact link to your Food on Fridays page, not just the link to your blog).You can also visit other people’s posts by clicking on Mr. Linky and then clicking participants’ names–you should be taken straight to their posts.Please note: I return when possible during the day and update this post by hand to include a list of the links provided via Mr. Linky. If I can’t get to the computer to do so, you may access them all by clicking on the Mister Linky logo.

Food on Fridays with AnnAll I can say is that if you like curry a little bit—and if you like sweet potatoes a lot—this dish is the next thing you should try in your crockpot.Crockpot Chicken Curry with Sweet Potatoes (and coconut-milk-rice)Ingredients:4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts1 onion2 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced2/3 cup orange juice1 tsp salt1/4 tsp ground pepper3 tsp curry powder1 clove garlic, mincedInstructions:Main Dish: Cut the chicken breasts in half and half again, so they are skinny strips. Or you could cut them into cubes, I suppose. Arrange in the bottom of the crockpot. Cut up the onion in big pieces and place on top of the chicken. Peel and dice the sweet potatoes and spread on top of onion and chicken. Mix all the spices into the orange juice and pour over the top. Place the lid on the crockpot and cook for 5-6 hours on low (add liquid if your crockpot cooks a little hot or if you think you might be late–you can add more OJ or add some chicken broth or water with bouillon).Rice: One typical can of coconut milk yields about 2 C of liquid. I made the rice in a rice cooker using 2 C rice and for the liquid, 2 C coconut milk + 2 C water. The coconut milk adds subtle flavor to the rice, jazzing up the entire dish when served together. (** Updated **) Prepare rice as you normally would on the stove or in a rice cooker.I’ve doubled this many times and it does well in my big crockpot. On the other hand, tonight I made the standard amount in a baking dish in the oven.Visit this link for a nice photo-tutorial on how to prepare this dish.

    Y.U.M.! This is seems to be similar to a dish I get regularly at our local Thai restaurant. Thanks for sharing! (And how happy it makes me that this is a crockpot recipe.)

    I have two new friends from India, and I’m delighted to have a dish to make this weekend and share with the family. They have been talking up the health benefits of curry. Thanks again Ann!

    Oh, I WISH the husband would eat sweet potatoes. Or curry. Hmmm…he’s really not that picky, but sometimes it sounds like it!

    I would be honored if you’d link this recipe to the Super Foods carnival (sweet potato is a super food) next Thursday at Kitchen Stewardship (or I’m sure others of yours would fit the bill, too). Thanks for hosting this week!

    Maybe I missed it, but if you’re using large chunks of sweet potatoes, how long do you cook it for on low in the crock pot?
