6 chicken breasts (cook as per instructions and
cut into ½ inch portions)
½ chicken broth cube
1 teaspoon of seasoning (Use complete season or
what you like)
3 tablespoons of corn oil
¼ cup of raisins
½ cups of mayonnaise
1 small onion (chopped)
2 teaspoons of powdered curry
1 tablespoon of tomato paste
½ cup of red wine
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons of fresh lime juice
¼ teaspoon of thyme
¼ teaspoon of oregano
salt and ground pepper to taste.
Preparation:
prepare a hot frying pan for frying the chicken breast.
place 2 tablespoons of corn oil In the frying pan over
a medium to high flame.
coat or dress the chicken breast with powdered seasoning
(not bread-crumbs). you can use maggi complete seasoning,
adobo or similar powdered "all season".
fry the chicken breasts for about 3 minutes each
side. add ½ cup of water and the ½ chicken broth cube by
breaking it into a powder with your fingers over the pan. place a lid over
you pan and cook on a low to medium flame for an additional 8 minutes. turn
off and remove chicken breasts (save the broth or liquid contents that is in
the pan for later use). you may want to place the chicken on a paper towel
covered plate to drain off the oil. cut the breasts into portions or
½ inch cubes / strips.
in a new frying pan add the other tablespoon of corn
oil and place over a low flame.
fry the chopped onions for 2 to 3 minutes. now add the
curry, thyme, oregano and the liquid you have reserved
from when you fried the chicken breasts. Also add an additional
¾ cup of water, red wine and 1 teaspoon of fresh
lime-juice. cook or simmer on a low flame for a few minutes,
sufficient to blend and integrate everything in the pan
and evaporate some of the water. Turn off and allow to
cool down.
in a mixing bowl, add the ½ cup of
mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, raisins and salt & pepper to taste.
strain off the liquid from the frying pan. if it is
more than ½ cup, then use about ½ cup only.
add this broth or liquid to the mayonnaise mixture in
your bowl (just the broth and not the onions). add your
chicken to the bowl containing the mayonnaise-raisins
and toss together with the other ingredients.
