Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 cups white rice
  • 4 cups water

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Large skillet
  • Cutting board
  • Knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method

  1. In a large pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
  2. While the rice is cooking, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until browned on all sides.
  3. Add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened.
  4. Add the curry powder, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using) to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  5. Stir in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly.
  6. Once the rice is done, fluff it with a fork and divide it among four plates.
  7. Spoon the chicken curry over the rice and serve hot.

Notes

  • If you prefer a milder curry, you can reduce the amount of cayenne pepper or leave it out entirely.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled to serve more people.
  • If you don’t have coconut milk, you can substitute heavy cream or half-and-half.
  • This dish pairs well with naan bread or a simple side salad.
