  1. Country Captain

    Country Captain is a dish which, in its basic form, is a mild stew made with browned chicken pieces, onions, and curry powder . Golden raisins and almonds are usually added. Many versions also call for tomatoes, garlic, and bell peppers. The dish is served over white rice. Country Captain may have originated in Indian subcontinent India as a simple poultry or game recipe involving onions and curry and possibly enjoyed by British officers.
