Curry Crab and Chicken over Chickpea Golden Raisin Quinoa
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
4 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoon ground turmeric
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1/2 teaspoon minced jalepeno
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cups light coconut milk
1 cup water
1 can crabmeat
2 cups cubed chicken
1 cup of argula
1 cup uncooked quinoa
1 cup of golden raisins
1 15oz can of chickpeas
Instructions:
In a deep, medium skillet, heat the oil. Add the onion and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the curry powder, turmeric and cumin and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, jalepeno and thyme and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the coconut milk and water and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced by one-third, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, boil 1 and 1/2 cups of water. When it starts to boil, add in the 1 cup of quinoa and cook until it absorbs all the water. Then transfer to plate and let set for 15 minutes. After the crab/chicken dish has reduced down, stir the crab and argula into the sauce and cook just until heated through.

Tomorrow I plan to run with Nancy for as long as I can. It's supposed to be absolutely freezing! Last night we ended up going out to John Harvards and tonight we are meeting friends in the city.
PS-Since I am adding the pics, I might as well also talk about my run this morning (Saturday). I met Nancy at 8am and dressed in Nike tights, long-sleeve Dri-Fit Shirt, Hooded Dri-Fit Nike Sweat-Shirt, Nike Fleece Gloves, Nike Headband, and Fleece socks. It was 10 DEGREES! No joke! We ran for exactly 8 miles!!!
