Spicy Ground Chicken (Edit recipe)

As much as I like creating new Indian recipes, I love using a tried and true spice mix and using it in a fresh new way. I got the idea for using Grandma’s Spicy Chicken Curry seasoning mix on ground chicken from my facebook friend CaptGeorgeFetzer and his beautiful wife Sarah. George is a former restauranteur and makes amazing fusion recipes with our seasonings. George @geoscookincorner used our Chicken Tikka Masala with ground meat in one of his recipes. This gave me the idea for using ground chicken with Grandma's Spicy Chicken Curry seasonings. I started experimenting and made this yummy creation. I love that you don’t need to marinate the meat overnight for the spices to sink into the meat. This dish is quite quick and easy with yummy homemade taste. I do recommend topping the chicken with something crunchy like green onions, peanuts or croutons to give this dish a bit of crunch.

Notes

Chef’s Notes on customizing spicy heat: This dish IS on the SPICY side, as no yogurt is used in this recipe to temper down the spicy heat. (per recipe listed on the back label of the chicken curry seasoning kit). Feel free to OMIT the jalapeno. Add a dollop of sour cream or yogurt to the dish after cooking if it’s too spicy hot.
