Ingredients
1-1/4 pounds (4580 grams) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
1 tablespoon (12 grams) apple cider vinegar (tenderizes the meat, quick marinate)
3 tablespoons (24 grams) vegetable oil, (half reserved for frying)
1 teaspoon (5 grams) season salt
1 teaspoon (3 grams) garlic powder
1-1/2 (12 grams) tablespoons curry powder
1 cup (130 grams) celery, diced
1/2 cup (90 grams) cherry tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup (110 grams) water
Directions
In a medium bowl, add the chicken, apple cider, 1/2 the oil, season salt, garlic powder, and curry powder. Let sit for 10 – 15 minutes (optional).
Heat the reserved oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just hot enough. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned but still pink in spots, about 5 - 7 minutes.
Add the celery and tomatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serve and enjoy with vegetables, rice, quinoa, or pasta.
