February is the time for heart-warming meals. You can’t go wrong with these two simple and tasty chicken recipes. Just click on the links below to see the recipes.
First, a quick and easy
Chicken Curry recipe from
Epicurious.com.
A few tips to keep the dish budget savvv:
- The recipe works just fine with regular white rice instead of the basmati.
- Most grocery stores sell canned coconut milk in the ethnic food section at a very reasonable price. Sweetened, condensed milk can also be used.
- If you cannot find a good deal on cashews, almost any other unsalted nut (peanuts, almonds, etc.) can be used.
- Golden raisins can be used instead of dried currants.
For something equally heartwarming, but less spicy, try
Baked Chicken & Rice with Peas from the
San Francisco Chronicle. This recipe is easy to prepare, inexpensive and healthy.
- Purchase extra chicken when it is on sale and keep it in the freezer.
- Also, stock your pantry with chicken broth when it goes on sale. It can be used in dozens of recipes.
