Chicken Curry

Description

This simple chicken curry is full of flavor and comes together quickly. Tender chicken pieces are simmered in a spiced coconut milk sauce for a warming and hearty meal.

Ingredients

• Chicken: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces.
• Onion and Ginger: Essential aromatics that form the base of the curry flavor.
• Spices: Curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and coriander bring the heat and earthiness.
• Coconut Milk: Full-fat coconut milk gives the sauce a rich and creamy texture.
• Tomato: A little tomato paste or chopped tomatoes adds acidity and color.
• Vegetables: You can add bell peppers, peas, or potatoes for extra nutrition.
• Cilantro: Fresh cilantro for garnish adds a burst of freshness.

Steps

1. Sauté onions, ginger, and garlic in a pan until soft and fragrant.
2. Add the spices and cook for a minute to release their oils.
3. Add the chicken pieces and brown them slightly on all sides.
4. Pour in the coconut milk and tomatoes, then bring to a simmer.
5. Cook gently until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
6. Serve hot over steamed basmati rice.
