CURRIED CHICKEN (EASY)



Curried Chicken (Easy) image

"I Hate To Cook Book" is a delightful, funny and curious cookbook, copyrighted 1960 and was a girl's best friend. For the women who did it all, and was not predisposed to "liking" cooking to boot. This "Sunday Chicken" adaption is absolutely a lifesaver, for all of us, even now, in todays world. Just takes *chicken* and a couple other ingredients. Please give this your seal of approval--and most of all, *enjoy*.

CURRIED CHICKEN WITH RICE



Curried Chicken With Rice image

This one comes from my newlywed days when I received a whole set of illustrated recipe cards. I tweaked it to suit our tastes into a very flavorsome and aromatic meal! The rice cooks in the microwave while the chicken works in the frying pan; why--dinner will be ready before you know it--altho' you WILL have to listen to LOTS of begging (as in, "What are you making that smells so good?" and "Are we ever going to eat?").
