Chicken Curry with Coconut Milk

Chicken, curry spices, potatoes and coconut milk give this dish an aromatic flavor you'll really enjoy. Enjoy this over basmati rice for a complete meal (or great with roti).

To make this light I use skinless chicken and I remove all fat. I buy Light Coconut Milk from Trader Joe's, it's is half the points of regular coconut milk. I am starting to see other brands carry it as well.
