Yes, the Lord of the house decided to cook. He made his rendition of
curried chicken. It was actually really good. However it lacked
something. I'm hoping the terrific cooks on RFC can help me tweak the
recipe. I'm not into the curry type sauces. Here goes:
1 1/2 cups half and half (I woulda used cream)
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon cornstarch
6 tablespoons dry sherry (I woulda used white wine and drank the
rest of the bottle)
1 teaspoon of really good curry powder
3/4 teaspoon of salt
1/8 teaspoon of Cayenne pepper (optional... my ass)
2 cups of cooked, cubed chicken (He used 3 pounds)
1 1/2 cups of cooked rice
Preheat oven to 350. Put the 1/2 and 1/2 into a saucpan over medium heat
with the butter and allow to boil. Butter an 8x8x2 baking pan.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and sherry. Slowly add to the
saucepan above stirring vigorously to prevent lumping. Add curry, salt and
Cayenne and cook until the sauce has boiled and thickened. Approx. 3
minutes. Add the cooked chicken.
Put rice and chicken in buttered pan and bake, uncovered 15-25 minutes.
Okay, I may be insane but does this recipe scream for a fine dice of green
pepper?
