Ingredients


8 (4 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 tablespoons cooking oil

1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms

1 medium onion, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

3 teaspoons curry powder, or to taste

¼ teaspoon salt


¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon

¾ cup reduced sodium chicken broth

1 medium cooking apple, cored and chopped

1 cup LACTAID® Reduced Fat 2% Lactose-Free Milk

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

3 cups hot cooked rice

Assorted condiments*

Directions


  1. In a large skillet cook chicken thighs in hot oil over medium heat about 10 minutes or until chicken is lightly browned, turning to brown evenly. Remove chicken; set aside.

  2. Add mushrooms, onion, and garlic to skillet; cook until vegetables are tender. Reduce heat to low. Add curry powder, salt, and cinnamon; cook and stir for 1 minute. Carefully add chicken broth and chopped apple. Return chicken to skillet. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 15 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. (Internal temperature should reach 180 degrees F with an instant-read thermometer.)

  3. Transfer chicken to a serving platter; keep warm.

  4. For sauce, combine LACTAID® Reduced Fat 2% Lactose-Free Milk and flour; stir into pan juices. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 1 minute more.

  5. Spoon some of the sauce over chicken. Serve with rice and, if desired, assorted condiments. Pass remaining sauce.
