Chicken Curry

November 6, 2017 by Finite Foodie Leave a Comment

If it’s chilly outside, here’s a recipe that will warm you up quickly. This is one of our spicier dishes, but it won’t send you running for a cold glass of milk. We think it’s just right for curry. Since this dish includes vegetables, there’s no need to prepare anything else, which is always a plus in our kitchen.

We’ve rated this as a moderately difficult meal only because there’s a fair amount of chopping and subsequent cleanup. To save time and space, cut the vegetables as you need them according to the instructions. We typically serve this with brown rice, but it’s also good on potatoes or with naan on the side.

Here's a relatively easy chicken curry loaded with vegetables. Begin to cook some brown rice right before starting the recipe, and everything should be done at the same time.

Instructions
  1. If serving with rice, cook now according to package instructions or see How to Cook Brown Rice.
  2. Chop onion. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat, then add onion. Cook and stir while you continue.
  3. Slice carrot into 1/4-inch-thick pieces, cutting on the diagonal for a more attractive look. Thinly slice garlic. Add both to skillet. Cook and stir while you continue.
  4. Snap ends off green beans, then snap in half. Set aside.
  5. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces on a cutting board dedicated to raw meats if possible. Add to skillet and turn heat up to medium. Cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes.
  6. Add water, chili powder, curry powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Simmer 1 minute.
  7. Stir in green beans (or other green vegetable), then turn heat to low and cover with a lid (or foil). Cook 3 to 5 minutes, or until green beans are crisp-tender and chicken is done.
  8. Stir in yogurt and add a little more water if desired. Heat through.
  9. Serve over rice. Alternatively, serve over boiled potatoes, or with naan on the side.
Recipe Notes

*Tip: Save time and use frozen green beans, or substitute chopped bok choy or broccoli.

KITCHEN ESSENTIALS

Our concept for the Finite Foodie® has these simple goals in mind —

1. To provide simple, clear steps for setting up your first, probably small kitchen with a minimal amount of equipment and investment.

2. To teach you cooking basics,  terminology and terms, and common conversions and equivalents.

3. To inspire you with healthful, easy recipes.

When we simmer a chicken in water (see our recipe for Slow Cooked Chicken) we end up with a pot full of rather bland chicken broth. No problem! Once we’ve removed the meat, we add the carcass back to the broth, throw in some vegetables and make a rich and complex bone broth. You can…
