Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, cut into chunks
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Cooked rice or naan, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large pot or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add the chicken pieces to the pot, cooking until lightly browned on all sides.
  4. Sprinkle in the curry powder, ground cumin, and ground coriander, stirring well to coat the chicken and onion mixture with the spices.
  5. Pour in the coconut milk and add the tomato paste. Stir to combine, ensuring that the tomato paste is fully dissolved into the sauce.
  6. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then cover and let cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, feel free to add a bit of water to reach your desired consistency.
  8. Serve the chicken curry over a bed of fluffy rice or with warm naan. Garnish with fresh cilantro for an extra burst of flavor and color.
