Quick Chicken Curry
During the past year most of us have cooked way more than normal. I’ve enjoyed creating new recipes & cooking at home. As someone who’s usually on the road every week, it IS A NICE change to eat at home, and have control over what you’re eating.
But it’s been 9 months. I think at this point, we’re all sick of something. There are plenty of nights I just don’t feel like cooking. But I also don’t want to wait for take-out. This recipe gives me the feel of take-out, but is also super fast and doesn’t require much effort. It’s also full of veggies, and tastes even better for breakfast the next morning!
You can use any veggies you want in this recipe- just chop up 2-3 cups of whatever you prefer. IT’s a great way to use up what’s in the fridge!
Happy cooking, and enjoy National Curried Chicken Day at home!
