INGREDIENTS:
4 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 garlic cloves, chopped 2-inch piece fresh ginger, chopped
1/2 Spanish onion, peeled and chopped water 1/2 each of red, green and yellow bell peppers, chopped
3-6 fresh green hot peppers, chopped (to taste) 1-1/2 pounds chicken breast, skinned and cubed 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
2 fresh tomatoes, chopped salt to taste SPICES 1 (WHOLE): 1 teaspoon white cumin seeds
1 teaspoon mustard seeds SPICES 2 (GROUND): 1 teaspoon turmeric 1 tablespoon Mild Curry Powder (storebought or homemade)



1 Heat the oil and fry spices 1, the garlic, ginger, and onion for just 1 minute each.
2 Add spices 2 and a tiny bit of water just to prevent sticking. Add the sweet and hot peppers and the chicken, and stir-fry for 10 minutes.
3 Add the cilantro and tomatoes, and stir-fry for a minimum of 5 minutes more. Check that the chicken is cooked through (cut a large piece in half) and if so serve at once. This dish loses freshness if it stands around.
