Quick Chicken Curry

Chicken will be thoroughly cooked and tender when it is cut into small uniform pieces and cooked in a liquid. Covering the dish lets the trapped steam heat the food evenly, and stirring redistributes the uncooked portions. Serve this curry over rice or noodles and sprinkle with toasted nuts or coconut. Offer chutney or plain yogurt as an accompaniment.
