From the Test Kitchen

To elevate our fragrant vadouvan-coated chicken breasts, we’re serving a sweet-and-spicy dipping sauce made from honey and spiced tomato chutney—a combination of tomatoes, tart tamarind, spicy chiles, and more. It’s all served over a bed of rice and tender sautéed veggies, which get a bit of sweetness from golden raisins.
