Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a food processor, puree the onion, jalapeño, ginger, cilantro, and garlic. Add the apples while the food processor is processing.

    Place the curry powder in a Dutch oven or large saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add the coconut milk and stir until smooth; cook for about 5 minutes, or until reduced by half. Add the apple and onion mixture and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the chicken broth and lentils. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until the lentils are tender and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Add the chicken and simmer until tender, about 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with cilantro before serving.
