Cook Chicken on one side until you see the whites of the chicken start coming up on the sides and then flip. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until there is no more visible pink on the outside of the chicken (it will not be done yet) and then remove from pan into a separate bowl.

Add the frozen peppers and onions to the pan and cook on medium high until the water is cooked out and they are totally soft. NOTE: If cooking Zucchini prep it while the peppers are cooking by cutting off the ends, slicing in half, and cutting into wedges. Coat with EVOO + Garlic Salt and cook in a 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes.

When water is cooked out of the peppers, turn the heat down to medium and add the shaken coconut milk and 1/3 cup of chicken broth. Stir well, then add chickpeas, the chicken, and 1 TBSP Curry powder. Stir well to combine and turn heat up to medium high to cook down for about 6 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes. NOTE: Cook your rice here!
