Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Chicken

Cut the boneless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of yellow curry powder. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Cook the Vegetables

In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Then add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional minute.

3

Add Chicken

Add the marinated chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Add Curry and Coconut Milk

Stir in the remaining yellow curry powder, sliced bell pepper, and carrot. Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.

5

Serve

Serve the yellow curry chicken over signature rice and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
