Super Easy Chicken Curry Recipe!

If you have ever lived abroad before you know that feeling when you crave a special dish or food and then you realize that getting it or making it will be a difficult task. I've come to realize too, that for me, missing food from the USA or the easiness of getting food is one of the hardest parts of living in another country. However, it has also been an eye-opener too.

The other night I was craving Curry some kind of bad. So I decided to give it a try and make some myself, which I'd never actually done before. I went on a search for coconut milk (which you can occasionally find in Paraguay) but, with no luck. I also thought I had curry powder before I started ... which I didn't. But, that is one thing I've learned from cooking here is that it no need to worry it will usually all work out. So if you ever want to make Chicken Curry and don't have all the ingredients here is the recipe for you!

Ingredients:

- Chicken ( I used 2 thigh/breasts, but if you have access to boneless chicken breasts 3 or 4)
- 1 or 2 diced onions
- 1 potato cubed
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 1 cup coconut flavored yogurt
- 3 tablespoons of peanut butter
- Cumin, red pepper flakes, ground ginger, ground coriander (if you have tumeric or mustard seed add that)
-  I included "condimento de pollo" because it had some curry in it

Then add the chicken and once it is cooked lightly add mixture to the sauce along with the potatoes on high heat until it simmers, then turn heat on low and cover. Let sit for 30 minutes or until potatoes are soft.
