Basil Chicken in Coconut Curry Sauce

Place diced uncooked chicken in a medium bowl. Stir together 2 tablespoons curry powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1pepper, and chili powder. Dump over chicken and mix till chicken is well coated. Cover and chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours.

Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add diced chicken, onion, jalapeno, and garlic and cook till meat is cooked and veggies are tender. Add in the basil, remaining 1 tablespoon curry powder, the rest of the salt, and ginger, cook stirring for 30 seconds. Meanwhile, mix the coconut milk and cornstarch till smooth. Pour into the pot over the chicken and veggies and bring to a boil stirring and cooking till thickened and bubbly. Add the potatoes. Turn the heat down and simmer for 30 minutes. Serve over hot basmati rice.

Note: the jalapenos do not make it too spicy they just add great flavor. My 9, 5, and 1-year-old gobbled this up!
