Nirvana Chicken (Passover)

Submitted by Oolala

"From a magazine called Reform Judiasm, Spring 2007 as a suggestion for Passover. The photo is fantastic. McCormick makes the red curry powder but it is a blend of spices that includes: cumin, cardamom and hot red chili powder. Use almonds for Passover or peanuts if not using for Passover."
