Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Ingredients

    Begin by washing the chicken pieces thoroughly and setting them aside. Chop the onions and green bell pepper, and puree the tomatoes. Mince the garlic and ginger.

  2. 2

    Sautéing the Onions and Aromatics

    In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped onions and sauté them until they are translucent. This should take about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Adding Garlic and Ginger

    Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan, stirring frequently, and cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. 4

    Cooking the Chicken

    Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken pieces to the pan. Stir constantly for about 7-10 minutes, allowing the chicken to brown on all sides.

  5. 5

    Incorporating Tomatoes and Peppers

    Pour the pureed tomatoes into the pan along with the chopped green bell pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients, and let it cook for another 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Adding Coconut Milk

    Lower the heat back to medium. Gradually add the coconut milk to the pan, stirring slowly. Allow the mixture to simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

  7. 7

    Final Seasoning

    Taste the gravy and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well, and let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  8. 8

    Serving

    Once ready, remove the pan from heat. Serve the pepper chicken gravy hot with rice or flatbread.
