Scale
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 pound chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut in 1/2 inch pieces
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 cup snow pea pods, chopped

Instructions
- Combine salt, flour, and curry powder in a medium sized bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat. In a large sauté pan over medium high heat add the oil. When it just begins to shimmer, add the seasoned chicken and sauté for 5 minutes or until it begins to brown. Add the snow pea pods and red pepper and toss to combine.
