Preheat the oven to 375°.
Season the chicken on all sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven pot at medium-high heat and brown the chicken on all sides until crispy. Remove the chicken and add the onions, garlic and lemon grass to the pot and cook over medium heat until the onions are lightly browned, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the curry-milk mixture and return the pot to the burner over low heat and cook the potatoes and carrots until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Finish by adding in the peas and cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat.
Garnish the chicken with cilantro, green onions and peppers and serve alongside cooked basmati rice and curry stewed vegetables.
