Going out to dinner with a couple girlfriends tonight, and then later we are seeing a show.
It's a great restaurant town with so much to choose from. Will post about it tomorrow.

(22,942 posts)A dozen raw oysters with cocktail sauce, lemon, horseradish and hot sauce. Crackers on the side.
Small filets of sushi-grade tuna right off the fishing trawler. Theyll be seasoned, covered is black pepper and sesame seeds then seared black and blue. Served with soy sauce and wasabi. White rice and a mixed green salad on the side.
Fresh custard from a stand across the street from the marina were staying at in Jacksonville.
I love fresh seafood!
Theres still a bottle of Chablis left. Time for a trip to the ABC store!
ETA: what show are you seeing, NJCher?

(26,730 posts)Very tasty. And I'm freezing four portions for future meals.
This is one of the few things that I make that I actually follow the recipe exactly.
Once again my small home smells wonderful.

(136,365 posts)but it's been a while. A friend discovered frozen curried chicken (Thai?) provided @ my grocery store, so he's been buying it recently, being from India/Pakistan, and longing for his homeland's food.

(26,730 posts)It's incredibly easy to make. Perhaps 15 or so minutes of prep. I didn't bother to time it. But doing the two pans with different ingredients was simple. Honestly, my small home still reeks wonderfully of this.
Because I knew I'd be freezing most of this, I omitted the potatoes.
Ingredients:
½ boneless chicken breast cubed
1 medium onion sliced
1 medium carrot sliced
1 cup peas
1 potato cubed
3-5 cloves garlic
2 T butter
3-4 T curry powder
1 can coconut milk
Ginger, coriander, cumin, turmeric, red pepper flakes and salt
Olive oil
Melt the butter, stir in the curry powder. Then add the coconut milk.
In a separate pan saute the garlic and onions in the olive oil. Then add carrots, and then the chicken and cook until the chicken is very lightly cooked. Throw this mix into the curry/
coconut milk mix, add potato, bring to a simmer, then lower the heat, cover and let simmer for about 30 minutes or so. Last five minutes add the peas. Adjust seasonings.
Serve over rice.
Makes 5-6 servings
