Country Captain Chicken Breasts
Ingredients
2 medium Granny Smith apples

1 small Onion, finely chopped

1 small Green bell pepper, finely chopped

3 Cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp Dried currants

1 tbsp Curry powder

1 tsp Ground ginger

1/4 tsp Ground red pepper

1 can Diced tomatoes, (about 14 1/4 oz)

6 small Boned and skinned chicken breast halves, (about 1 3/4 lbs. total)

1/2 cup Chicken broth

1 cup Long-grain white rice

1 lb Large raw shrimp, shelled and deveined

1/3 cup Slivered almonds

Salt

Chopped parsley

Preparation
Quarter, core and dice unpeeled apples. In a 4-quart or larger electric slow cooker, combine apples, onion, bell pepper, garlic, currants, curry powder, ginger, and red pepper; stir in tomatoes. Rinse chicken and pat dry; then arrange, overlapping pieces slightly on top of tomato mixture. Pour in broth. Cover and cook at low setting until chicken is very tender when pierced (6 to 7 hours). Carefully lift chicken to a warm plate, cover lightly, and keep warm in a 200 deg oven. Stir rice into cooking liquid. Increase cooker heat setting to high; cover and cook, stirring once or twice, until rice is almost tender to bite (30 to 35 minutes). Stir in shrimp, cover and cook until shrimp are opaque in center; cut to test (about 10 more minutes). Meanwhile, toast almonds in a small nonstick frying pan over medium heat until golden brown (5 to 8 minutes), stirring occasionally. Set aside. To serve, season rice mixture to taste with salt. Mound in a warm serving dish; arrange chicken on top. Sprinkle with parsley and almonds. Makes 6 servings.
