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 tomatoes, toma- to paste, lime juice, coriander, bay leaf, sugar, salt and pepper together and pour over the chick- en. Cook 15 minutes on high, or until the chicken is tender and no longer pink. Turn the chicken over halfway through cooking.
