CURRY-AND-YOGURT BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS



Curry-And-Yogurt Braised Chicken Thighs image

This recipe is from Food and Wine. I love curries, but so many of my recipes are too labor intensive for a week-night meal. This is relatively quick and easy. It's a great summer-time meal, when you can use farm-fresh produce. When fresh corn is not available, substitute 1/2 C frozen corn.
