Ingredients

Directions

  1. Season the cut-up chicken pieces generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides until golden, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together orange juice, currants, chutney, curry powder, ground cinnamon, and ground red pepper.
  5. Return the browned chicken to the skillet. Add the sliced sweet potatoes.
  6. Pour the orange juice mixture over the chicken and potatoes, ensuring everything is coated.
  7. Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover the skillet.
  8. Simmer gently for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  9. Remove the lid and let the sauce reduce slightly if desired. Skim any excess fat from the surface.
  10. Arrange the chicken and potatoes on a serving platter. Spoon the sauce over the top.
  11. Garnish with mandarin orange segments, sliced bananas, and toasted slivered almonds before serving.
