Ginger-Coconut Chicken
The wonderful flavors of southern India--coconut milk, dried Thai chiles and coriander seed--provide a pleasant punch to a basic chicken breast. Although the ingredients look exotic, this is a deceptively easy dish you'll be proud to serve to guests. Feel free to use different cuts of chicken, bone-in or boneless; just adjust the cooking time accordingly. You can also grill the chicken.
