Instructions

  1. In a large skillet set over medium heat, add oil. Once the oil is hot, add the onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  2. Add chicken and brown, about 3 minutes per side. Add carrots and potatoes, cook until lightly browned. Stir in curry powder and curry pastes. Cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.
  3. Whisk in coconut milk, broth, sugar, and fish sauce. Gently simmer (covered or uncovered) for 20 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are cooked through. 
  4. Remove from heat and serve with rice and garnish with cilantro, if desired.

Notes

  • STORE in airtight containers and place in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, cook easy coconut curry chicken in a saucepan or wok on medium heat until heated through. You can also microwave until heated through.
  • FREEZE. Leftover coconut curry chicken can be frozen and thawed without any major problems. Allow the dish to cool completely before adding it to freezer-safe containers. It is best when used within 3 months. Thaw and reheat slowly over medium-low heat.
