Tempt My Tummy Coconut Curry Chicken Stew

This curry stew was so quick, easy (one pot!), and tasty that I had to share. I have never used skinless, boneless chicken thighs and have never cooked curry so it was a first for a few things. I cut lots of fat off the thighs. Not sure if that's normal. I cannot believe how tender the meat was! The girls even ate it (no broth from the soup as they thought it was too spicy, just chicken pieces and rice). The sweet potato mellowed the flavor a lot and just fit so nicely. I tried it before adding the coconut milk and I would have enjoyed it without, although the coconut milk gave it another layer of flavor. My husband commented how he thought curry was always spicy and this one was just fine. I got this from cookingclub.com magazine. Did I mention it only uses one pot? That is big for me :)
