- 1.5 pounds boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
- 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- Salt, to taste
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
- Lime wedges, for serving
- In a large skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and red chili powder. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chicken pieces to the skillet, stirring to coat them with the spices. Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and coconut milk. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes, allowing the chicken to cook through and absorb the flavors.
- Taste the curry and add salt as needed. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges for an extra zesty kick.
