Here is a recipe for a mouthwatering chicken curry from scratch:

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro

Instructions:

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute more.
  2. Stir in the cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  3. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken broth, and heavy cream. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  4. Stir in the cilantro and serve over rice or naan.

Tips:

  • For a richer curry, use coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
  • Add a dollop of plain yogurt or sour cream to each serving for extra flavor.
  • Serve with a side of raita (a yogurt-based condiment) and naan bread.
