Indian Coconut Chicken Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Combine curry powder, cinnamon, cumin, turmeric, coriander, nutmeg, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, cloves, allspice, and bay leaves in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the oils in the spices to activate. Pour olive oil into the skillet and add onion. Cook and stir until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, ginger, sugar, and salt; cook and stir for 5 minutes.
• Add chicken pieces, coconut milk, yogurt, and butter to the skillet. Bring to a boil, slightly reduce heat, and simmer until sauce reduces to desired thickness, about 30 minutes.
• Remove and discard bay leaves. Stir in lime juice and serve with lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken with the onion, scallions, garlic, cilantro, curry powder, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix and let marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until shimmering, and add the onion and garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
• Add the curry powder and stir well, cooking for 3-4 minutes more.
• Add the scallions and coconut milk, increase the heat to medium-high, and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the coconut milk is boiling and begins to thicken.
• Add the marinated chicken and stir well. Cook the chicken for 5 minutes, or until starting to brown. Season with pepper.
• Add the chicken broth to the pot and stir.
• Bring to a rolling boil and cover the pot. Simmer for 30 minutes, until the sauce thickens into a gravy.
• Garnish with cilantro.
• Enjoy!
