Quick Indian Chicken image

I defrosted some chicken thighs and just did not know what to do with them. I'm on a serious health kick at the moment so it had to be something low calorie. This is what I came up with. I imagine that chicken breasts, or pieces would work just as well. If you use chicken pieces on the bone, adjust your cooking time as it will take a little longer.
