Japanese Chicken Katsu Curry
Report
Japanese Chicken Katsu Curry, a delicious homemade chicken recipe to rival Wagamama's katsu curry. Ready in about 30 minutes, this recipe is a great midweek dinner for the whole family. The katsu sauce is beautifully spiced, and the chicken is fried to perfection in a breadcrumb crust.

Ingredients
For the breaded chicken
- 2 chicken breasts
- 2 cups breadcrumbs
- 1 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup Oil to fry
For the katsu sauce
- 1 onion
- 1 potato
- 1 carrot
- 2 cups chicken stock (broth)
- 1 tablespoon garam masala
- 1 tablespoon cornflour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
- To make the breaded chicken, place the chicken breasts on the work surface, cut them in 2 lengthwise, and bash them with a meat tenderiser.
- Next, we need 3 large plates. On one plate we have plain flour, on the other breadcrumbs, on the third the eggs.
- Beat the eggs lightly using a fork, then season with salt and pepper
- Dip the chicken fillets in the egg mixture, coat them in flour, then dip in the egg mixture again, and in the end toss them well in breadcrumbs.
- Heat up the frying pan and add the oil.
- Fry the chicken fillets on both sides for about 2 minutes on each side until golden, then remove from the pan and place on a kitchen towel to remove the excess oil.
- To make the katsu sauce, heat up the oil in a pan, peel and chop the onion, and fry until soft.
- Peel and chop the potato and carrot, add them to the pan, together with the garam masala, salt, and chicken stock.
- Leave to cook for about 10 minutes, until the veggies are soft.
- Mix the cornflour with 2 tablespoons of water, and add it to the sauce.
- Cook for a further 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- You can either serve the sauce chunky, or blend it to a smooth consistency.
- Serve the chicken with the katsu sauce and rice, for a true Japanese experience.
Notes
- If after frying the chicken breast fillet is a bit too thick and not quite cooked through, you can add it to a baking tray, cover it with foil, and bake for 10 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit) until coked well.
- Alternatively, the breaded chicken fillets can be baked all the way through instead of frying, they should take about 25 minutes in the oven, sprayed generously with cooking oil spray.
