Chanchill's Curried Chicken

"A delicious recipe from a dear friend of the family who so generously shared her secrets with grateful friends. The style or seasoning mix combination is from the Punjab region of India. The spicy "heat" of this dish can be adjusted by the amount of cayenne pepper and jalapeno peppers you use, this recipe as shown is about medium spicy. Note in step #2 the key to a delicious sauce is to stir constantly. I use skinless/boneless chicken. This can also be used for lamb, pork or beef. When using the other meats, the most economical cuts can be used, though fat and grisle should always be removed before cooking, for best results. Great served with or over the Indian rice dish, Plauta."

I am a coastal California girl, relocated to Arizona a few years back now. I never thought I would like Arizona, we were giving this locale a two year trial period. Well I'm here to say I love it here!! The state, the weather, the community and all that goes with it. Our favorite time of day is the morning, sitting out on the back patio with our coffee, watching all the bird life; quails, thrashers, sparrows, woodpeckers, starlings, mockingbirds, wrens and the cottontail bunny rabbits and the occasional coyote passing through the yard. We have wonderful weather 10 months out of the year, great sunsets and great neighbors, who could ask for more! My folks came to visit us, fell in love with the community as well and in three days they bought a place too! My Mom calls me the president of the Chamber of Commerce, because I showed her the benefits and amenities of our community, so that she fell in love with it as well. So I took the next logical step and got my Real Estate license and became a Realtor. I am passionate about my new community, my new profession and all the regional southwest cooking possibilities!
