Kales the Cook: Golden Chicken Curry

By Gretchen Powers and Kaleigh Wood of Powers Provisions

Kaleigh and I often argue about who makes a better curry. She follows her recipe to more of a T and I tend to throw my ingredients into the pot by feel.  Both curries are delicious, and because it's definitely easier to follow a real recipe than try to describe sprinklings, dashes and spoonfuls, I've enlisted her help to share one of our favorite one pot wonder recipes with you.  If anyone has any tips for making rice that is neither undercooked, nor cooked to a pudding-like consistency, we'll definitely take them.  We've tried all of the different ways, and still manage to struggle every time.  Kaleigh is a huge fan of instant rice these days, whereas I rely on our rice cooker - though both of these ways tend to make pretty squishy rice.  With all of that being said, the curry is DELISH and I hope you give it a try!
