In A Hurry Curry

Tonight we got to the gym late and home even later, so here is a cheat dinner.
The extra cheat is that sometimes I cook some chicken breasts on Sundays to store or freeze, so when things get busy I have them ready.

Joe (my husband) and I both think we like Indian food. Till we actually eat it. We like American Indian food. This recipe is just enough Indian food to be agreeable. Also you get the freebie bonus recipe of Kale and Potatoes.

Hurry Curry
Serves 3-4
WW pts 7-8

Cook chicken breast heated in a skillet over medium. Add 1 cup frozen green peas. Cook 5 minutes. Add 1/2 cup red curry (I like Patak rogan josh curry). Simmer till warm.
Serve 1 cup chicken over 1/2 cup of saffron rice. It is an insane amount of food, but surprisingly light.

Normally I would cook some onion or squash or some other veggies to toss in, but it is too late in the evening for all that. Besides, 30 Rock is on.
We had a side salad and some kale and potatoes.

Kale and Potatoes
2 potatoes
1 bunch kale
S&P
various seasoning stuff 

Dice potatoes. Add just enough water to cover. Salt. Heat on high. Boil till soft. Mash a little with a fork. Add kale. Cook on med-low till kale is tender. An hour or so. Salt and pepper to taste. Add garlic or onion or hot sauce or red pepper flakes if you want. Make it your own, kids. 

I have got to take better pics. Jeez.
