This recipe is from Taste of Home - Take 5 Ingredients

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup milk
1 small yellow summer squash, sliced
1 small zucchini, sliced
1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons canola oil
2 cups cubed cooked turkey breast
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
Hot cooked rice
3 tablespoons chopped cashews

Directions:

In a small saucepan, melt butter; stir in flour and curry until smooth (use a whisk if you aren't getting the right consistency) Gradually add broth and milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 -2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; set aside.

In a large skillet, saute the squash, zucchini and onion in oil until tender. Add turkey, lemon peel and reserved sauce; heat through. Serve with rice. Sprinkle each serving with cashews.

I picked this recipe because my husband has a fascination with dishes with unusual spices. Curry is not a standard spice that we use very often, so I thought I would give him a treat.

This dish was very good considering I am not a fan of curry powder. The flavor of the curry was very light and it mixed well with the turkey, rice and cashews.

I gave this dish a 3 and my husband gave it a 4.
