3 tablespoons butter
2 pounds chicken breast fillets, cut into 1 inch strips

1/2 teaspoon dried ginger
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes (optional)
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
1. Heat butter in a heavy casserole over medium-high heat
until foam from butter subsides. Add chicken strips and
cook in batches until browned, 5 minutes per batch. Add
cumin, coriander, ginger, red-pepper flakes (if using)
and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes.
Add chicken stock and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring
occasionally, 5 minutes. Slowly add heavy cream and
simmer (do not let mixture come to a boil) until heated
through, 3 minutes.
3. Transfer chicken and sauce to a serving plate. Garnish
with cilantro.
Where's the curry? It's in the trio of cumin, coriander and ginger.
This simple weekday dish packs a lot of flavor.

Great chicken dish! I dropped some of the fat and calories by substituting non fat half and half, and it was still really good. Thanks.
