Indian Chicken with tomato chutney

This is an Indian version of sweet and sour chicken. It's sweet, sour and spicy. I use thighs, because I like dark meat, but breasts will work fine too. I made this for Kyle one time. I told him what was in the recipe and he was a bit dubious. But after he took a trepidatious bite, he said it was really good. So don't be such a fraidycat. Some of you who think you won't like this recipe will. As a bonus it's easy and healthy. Serve this with Oven Baked Brown Rice.
