Coconut Curry Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken breast cut into pieces
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 onion finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 inch ginger grated, piece
- 2 tomato chopped
- 2 tbsp curry powder adjust to your preferred spice level
- 1 tsp cumin ground
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- ½ tsp turmeric powder
- ½ tsp chili powder adjust to your preferred spice level
- 1 can coconut milk about 14 ounces
- 1 cup chicken broth
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- cilantro for garnish, fresh
Instructions
- First, heat the olive oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onions and cook until they become soft and translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chopped tomatoes to the pot and cook until they start to break down and release their juices.
- Add the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and chili powder to the pot. Mix well to coat the onions, garlic, and tomatoes with the spices. Cook for a couple of minutes until the spices are fragrant.
- Next, add the chicken pieces to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat the chicken with the spice mixture.
- Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth or water. Stir everything together, making sure the chicken is submerged in the liquid.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it cook for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- While the chicken is cooking, taste the curry and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or chili powder if desired.
- Once the chicken is cooked and the sauce has thickened, remove the pot from the heat.
- Finally, garnish the chicken curry with fresh cilantro before serving.
