Instructions

  1. To a food processor or blender, add the bell peppers, chilies, onion, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, curry power, and salt and pepper taste. Process to form a paste. Add a few tablespoons of water or stock if needed to loosen it up.
  2. Heat the oil in large pan or pot to medium heat. Add the curry paste and cook for 10 minutes, stirring a bit.
  3. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring.
  4. Add the chicken stock (1 cup for thicker gravy, 2 cups for thinner sauce) and reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the chicken cooks through completely.
  5. Garnish and serve.

Notes

  • Hot Chilies. Use any of your favorites. Kashmiri chilies are preferred, but any work here, like Fresno, jalapeno, serrano, or hotter like red habanero. You can also use dried pods, but rehydrate them in hot water first before pureeing.
  • Curry Powder. Use your favorite. This recipe works with any general brand, any type of homemade, or any specific curry powder. Experiment to find your favorite.
  • Chicken Stock. You can use water instead, or try coconut milk or a mix of water/stock with yogurt for a creamier version.
  • You can easily add in your favorite vegetables to make this a fuller dish.
