Spicy Chicken Curry

I have a weakness for Thai food, especially curry. Fortunately enough for me, I can make my own curry pretty easily to get my fix:) I made this with my sister, and it was delicious! (Unfortunately we ate it so quickly and I didn't get a photo...but next time I will).

Spicy Chicken Curry

2 lb Chicken Breast, cubed
1 sweet onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 14.5 oz can diced tomato (no added salt), with juice
1.5 cup fat free plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground pepper
2 tsp ground ginger (or 1 Tbs fresh ginger)
2 tsp kosher salt
2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely minced (I used garlic powder ~2 tsp)
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon curry powder (red curry powder...spicy!) 

Add oil to large sauce pan. When oil is hot, add onion and green pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes. Cut chicken into bite sized cubes and cook separately. Combine pepper, ginger, salt, coriander, turmeric and curry powder and add to pot. Stirring occasionally, cook until fragrant (10-15 minutes). Stir in diced tomatoes and Greek yogurt. Mix in chicken and serve hot over cooked brown or black rice (I love black rice).
