I took advantage of the Fresh market sale and bought 12lbs of chicken for $16!
Last night I made Chicken Curry from the "Fix, Freeze, Feast" book that I got free by using Swagbucks!
Here's the recipe:
About 6 pounds boneless, chicken half-breasts
1 cup butter
2 cups chopped onion
1/4 cup curry powder
2 T minced ginger (I used ground ginger)
2 T minced garlic
2 T sugar
2 T Chicken bouillon (I only used 2 squares)
2 t salt
1 cup flour
4 cups water
4 cups milk
2 T lemon juice
3 one-gallon freezer bags (I used 6 quart bags plus we had one meal for dinner last night) GOOD!
Cut chicken into bite size pieces
Cook over med. heat about 30 min.
Remove from heat and cool
Divide into freezer bags
While chicken cools melt butter in large saucepan over med heat
Add onions, cook until soft 5 min.
Add curry, ginger, garlic, sugar, bouillon, and salt
Cook stirring for 2 min
Add flour, cook, stirring 2 min more
Mixture will be a paste
Gradually add water and milk stirring constantly until sauce has thickened
Add Lemon juice after thickened
Cool sauce
Divide evenly into bags
Seal and Freeze
This turned out SO great! We served it over brown rice and garnished with peanuts (cheap from Smiths!)
