    Add chicken and begin to brown. Add tomatoes (include the sauce). Add all spices except fresh coriander.

    Add water if needed, it should not cover the chicken, but can be used to keep the dish from burning. You want the dish to be about the consistency of spaghetti sauce at the end of cooking.

    Cook 5 minutes or more- until chicken is fully cooked yet still tender. Serve over rice, sprinkle with coriander.
