Creamy Coconut Chicken Curry
This Creamy Coconut Chicken Curry is the ultimate comfort food. Tender pieces of chicken are simmered in a rich, aromatic sauce made with coconut milk, garlic, ginger, and a blend of warming spices. It’s perfect for a weeknight dinner but tastes like it came from a restaurant kitchen. Serve it over fluffy jasmine rice or with warm naan bread for dipping.
Ingredients
Instructions
Sauté Aromatics
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add Spices
Stir in the minced garlic, ginger, curry powder, and turmeric. Cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Brown Chicken
Add the diced chicken thighs to the pan. Stir well to coat the chicken in the spice mixture and cook until the chicken is browned on all sides.
Simmer
Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock. Bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
Serve
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve hot over rice.
