Brown chicken for 3-4 minutes each side.

Reduce heat to medium. Add onion,
garlic, cumin, curry, thyme and 1/2 cup
water ( I used broth) and season with salt.
Cook, stiring occasionally, until onion
has softened, 3-5 minutes.

Add carrots, coconut milk, 1/2 cup water
and chicken with any accumulated juices.
Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer,
cover partially, and cook until chicken
is cooked through and carrots are tender,
about 10 minutes. Remove from heat

Serve over rice.
