📜 Ingredients:
- 3 chicken breasts
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 onions
- 1 cup water
- 1 apple
- 1/4 cup curry powder
- 1/8 cup ginger
- 1/8 cup turmeric
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/3 cup raisins
👨🍳 Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to a sizzling 350°F, setting the stage for the magic to unfold.
-
Prepare the Chicken: Rinse the chicken breasts thoroughly and pat them dry. Give them a gentle dusting in a dance of all-purpose flour, ensuring each piece is coated in a blanket of flavor.
-
Sear to Perfection: Grab a spacious non-stick skillet, generously spray it with vegetable magic, and let it sizzle over medium-high heat. Place the floured chicken in the skillet, cooking each side until it wears a golden brown crown.
-
Casserole Assembly: Transfer the beautifully browned chicken into a medium-sized shallow casserole dish, creating a canvas for the upcoming flavor symphony.
-
Onion-Apple Alchemy: In the same skillet, work your culinary magic. Cook the onions in a tablespoon of water over low heat for 5 minutes, then introduce the apple to the aromatic waltz for an additional minute.
-
Spice Sprinkle: Sprinkle the medley of curry powder, ginger, turmeric, salt, and pepper over the chicken, transforming it into a canvas of vibrant hues and tantalizing aromas.
-
Broth Baptism: Pour the chicken broth over the ensemble, ensuring every nook and cranny is touched by the savory elixir, setting the stage for a juicy masterpiece.
-
Bake to Bliss: Cover the casserole dish like a treasure chest, allowing the flavors to mingle and dance in the oven for a symphonic 55 minutes or until the chicken achieves a tender perfection.
-
Raisin Revelation: As the final act approaches, sprinkle the raisins over the dish, letting them join the flavor party. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the raisins to plump and contribute their sweet melody to the dish.
-
Serve and Savor: Unveil your masterpiece, serving it with pride. Each forkful delivers a burst of flavors – the savory chicken, the aromatic spices, the sweet raisins – creating a harmonious balance that will leave your taste buds singing in delight.
