1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 teaspoon turmeric |

1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
3 tablespoons fresh basil |

Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the spices in a small bowl. Add the chicken pieces to a large plastic bag and sprinkle the spice mixture over. Toss so the spices cover all of the chicken.

2. Dice the onion, garlic, and jalapenos. Grate the ginger and set aside.
3. Cook the onions, garlic, and jalapeno in a large saute pan with one tablespoon of olive oil. Cook for 2 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften. Transfer the mixture to a plate.
4. Add more olive oil if needed, and cook half of the chicken until brown on both sides. Take out of the pan and cook the other half.
5. Mix together coconut milk and cornstarch.
6. Add the coconut milk to the pan and cook until it begins to thicken. Make sure that it comes up to a bubble.
7. Add the chicken and vegetables back to the pan, adding the basil and ginger. Check for seasoning, add more salt and pepper as needed.
