Coconut Curry Chicken
  1. 1

    Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper; set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir the curry powder in the hot oil for 1 minute. Stir in the onions and garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken, tossing gently to coat it with the curry oil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir the tomatoes, coconut milk, tomato sauce, and sugar into the skillet. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 to 40 minutes.
