Ingredients

  1. 1 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, or more to taste
  2. 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  3. 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
  4. 5 ⅓ cups water, divided
  5. 1 (7.75 ounce) package curry sauce mix (such as S&B® Golden Curry®)
  6. 1 (15 ounce) can peas, drained
  7. 5 new potatoes, halved
  8. 1 (8 ounce) package sliced cremini mushrooms
  9. 2 medium carrots, chopped
  10. 1 medium onion, chopped
  11. 2 cups jasmine rice (such as Mahatma®)

Instructions

  1. Place chicken in a large, deep skillet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Add 1/3 cup water to the pan, cover, and cook over medium heat until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes.
  2. While chicken is cooking, pour 2 cups water into a microwave-safe bowl. Break curry sauce mix into pieces and add to water. Heat in the microwave on high for 3 1/2 minutes; remove and stir until sauce mix has completely dissolved.
  3. Remove chicken from the skillet. Cut into cubes, return to the skillet, and pour curry sauce over top. Stir in peas, potatoes, mushrooms, carrots, and onion. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, bring remaining water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
  5. Scoop rice into bowls and serve curry on top.
  6. Two 3.2-ounce packages of curry sauce mix can be used instead of the larger package.
  7. Baby portobello mushrooms can be used instead of cremini mushrooms.
  8. You can substitute a canned pea-and-carrot mixture for the canned peas. Substitute one 15-ounce can of diced potatoes for the new potatoes if desired.

OMG! That can’t be all it takes to sum this up but nothing else comes close! The smells that permeated through my house were incredible and my family absolutely loved this! The only thing I would do different the next time is cut my potatoes a little bit smaller. But all in all this was a huge hit!
