DIRECTIONS: Heat a browning dish for 5 minutes in the microwave, on high. Melt the butter and add the chicken pieces. Cook 15 minutes on both sides or cook in 2 batches for 7 1/2 minutes each batch if necessary. Remove the chicken and add the onion, garlic and curry powder. Cook 1 minute on high. Replace the chicken, skin side down, and add the raisins, apples and almonds. Mix the toma- toes, tomato paste, lime juice, corian- der, bay leaf, sugar, salt and pepper together and pour over the chicken. Cook 15 minutes on high, or until the chicken is tender and no longer pink. Turn the chicken over halfway through cooking. Remove the bay leaf and serve with rice and garnish with desiccated coconut.
