Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Ingredients

    Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger. Dice the tomatoes and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cut the Chicken

    Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

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

    Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  3. 5

    Add Spices

    Add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili powder to the pot. Stir well for about 1 minute to toast the spices.

  4. 6

    Cook the Chicken

    Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the pot, stirring to coat with the spices. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, until the chicken is browned on all sides.

  5. 7

    Add Tomatoes and Coconut Milk

    Stir in the diced tomatoes and coconut milk, mixing well. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low.

  6. 8

    Simmer

    Cover the pot and let the curry simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Serving

    Once the chicken is tender, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and black pepper if needed.

  2. 10
