Chicken Curry

October 24, 2013

The divine smells from this Chicken Curry simmering, transported me back to my Moms kitchen, from when I was a little girl to just the last time I was there.  I think I did my Mom justice, it came out awesome!!

CHICKEN CURRY
4 chicken breasts or 1 whole chicken(cut), seasoned with salt/pepper
1 Tbs olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 cauliflower head, chopped into large chunks (or potatoes if you like)

In large pot, heat olive oil on high and brown chicken on both sides, remove from pan.
