Number Of Ingredients 7

1 and 1/2 lb skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 Tbsp butter
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 c finely chopped shallots
1 Tbsp curry powder, or more to taste

Steps:

1. Cut chicken breasts into thin strips or small chunks. Melt butter in a skillet and when it is hot but not brown, add the chicken. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Cook chicken, stirring, until it loses its 'raw' look, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle chicken with the shallots and curry powder; stir to blend. Cook for 2 minutes or so, til chicken is done. With the small/thin pieces it will not take long. Do not overcook. Transfer all to a bowl.
3. Add wine to the skillet and cook over high heat for about 3 minutes, or until it is reduced by about half. Add the cream to the skillet, along with any juices that have accumulated in the bowl holding chicken,and cook, stirring, over medium-high heat for 4 minutes. Add chicken and stir to blend; heat through.
4. Nice sprinkled with chopped peanuts and/or minced parsley!
