Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well and set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, chop the onion, bell pepper, and tomatoes. Mince the garlic and set all the chopped ingredients aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large skillet or pot, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, sautéing until the onions become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the marinated chicken thighs to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked through.

  3. 5

    Add the Veggies and Spices

    Stir in the bell pepper, diced tomatoes, and curry powder. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften.

  4. 6

    Stir in Coconut Milk

    Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and flavors meld together.

  5. 7

    Finish and Garnish

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Stir in chopped cilantro and remove from heat. If using, squeeze fresh lime juice over the top before serving.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Serve the pamil over cooked rice, if desired. Garnish with additional cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
