Method
- Ensure that the chicken breast chunk meat is defrosted fully. The seasoning will stick and cook more evenly. Cut chicken into bite sized cubes.
- In a bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, chicken base and curry powder, and mix together. Add the chicken and let marinate for 20 minutes.
- In a large heavy bottomed pot on medium heat, add half of the canola oil and saute the mushrooms, green peppers, zucchini, onions and peppers for 8-12 minutes. Stir occasionally. Remove but leave the oil residue behind and reserve.
- To the same pot, add the last of part of the canola oil and reheat. Then add the marinated chicken. Stir fry for 7-9 minutes. Add the reserved vegetables and cooked rice to the chicken pot. Saute for another 5-7 minutes, stirring gently. Ensure that the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F (74 C).
