Here is how you make Spicy Indian Chicken:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the rice. Boil for 25 minutes; drain well.Meanwhile, finely grate the gingerroot and crush the garlic and place in a large bowl; combine with the salt, cumin, coriander, turmeric and cayenne pepper and 1/2 cup of the coconut milk. Add the chicken; cover and refrigerate until the rice is ready.Warm the olive oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it begins to brown, 5 minutes. Add the cinnamon stick and continue to cook, stirring, until fragrant, 3 more minutes.Reduce the heat to low. Transfer half the onions to a plate, leaving the cinnamon stick and the rest of the onions in the pot. Over them, layer the partially cooked rice, green beans, half the cashews and then the chicken with its marinade. Pour the chicken broth and the remaining coconut milk over the top; sprinkle with the reserved onions.Cover and cook over low heat until the chicken and rice are cooked through and the liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Add the lemon juice and serve topped with the remaining cashews and, if desired, the sliced mint or cilantro.Serving Size: 1.5 cup rice, chicken, green beansNumber of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user NWILKER.
