From: www.recipe.com
All by itself, the cooking liquid--chicken broth flavored with ginger, oranges, and leeks--would be a great soup recipe. Poultry, lentils, and bok choy make it a meal.
Prep Time: 25 min
Servings: 6
3 lb meaty chicken pieces
2 Tbsp curry powder
1/2 tsp sea salt or salt
2 Tbsp cooking oil
1 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 large leeks, halved lengthwise, rinsed, and sliced
1 small orange, cut in wedges
1 cup French lentils, rinsed and drained
1 14 ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup dry white wine (optional)
1 - 2 heads baby bok choy, separated into individual leaves
Skin chicken, if desired. Sprinkle chicken with 1 tablespoon curry powder and salt. Brown chicken pieces, half at a time if necessary, in 4-quart Dutch oven in hot oil over medium-high heat. Remove from pan. Add ginger, leeks, orange wedges, and remaining curry powder. Cook and stir 2 to 3 minutes or until leeks are tender.
Stir in lentils, broth, and wine. Return chicken pieces to pan. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cook, covered, for 55 to 60 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink (170 degrees F).
Remove chicken; stir bok choy into lentil mixture. Use slotted spoon to serve.
