Curry-Not-Curry Chicken Breasts Stew with Potatoes

I had a bit of ginger, lemongrass and green onions left and loads of curry powder so, what did I do? I modified it to make a non-spicy curry-sort-of. The tangy stew can be served with a fragrant rice and side vegetables for just about any meal of the day. Well, maybe not breakfast? XD It's great for people who likes something to perk up their taste buds but don't really relish the idea of eating TOO SPICY food. Great balance between sweet, salty and spicy.
