Yellow Chicken Curry with Coconut Milk
A flavorful curry made with chicken, coconut milk, and spices, served over jasmine rice.
Ingredients
- water (3.5 cups)
- jasmine rice (2 cups)
- vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
- russet potatoes (4 medium)
- chicken thighs (1.5 pounds)
- salt (1 teaspoon)
- black pepper (1 teaspoon)
- coconut milk (1 can)
- curry powder (0.25 cup)
- garlic (4 cloves)
- soy sauce (2 tablespoons)
- white sugar (1.5 tablespoons)
- garlic powder (1.5 teaspoons)
- ground cumin (1.5 teaspoons)
- ground ginger (1 teaspoon)
- red pepper flakes (0.5 teaspoon)
Instructions
- Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; stir in rice, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer until water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Add a few tablespoons water if rice is too firm. Remove from heat, cover, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat oil in a large wok over medium-high heat. Add potatoes, chicken, salt, and black pepper; cook and stir until chicken is firm and no longer translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in coconut milk, curry powder, chopped garlic, soy sauce, sugar, garlic powder, cumin, ginger, and pepper flakes with a wooden spoon until well mixed. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until potatoes are very soft and curry aroma is strong, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Uncover wok; turn off heat. Taste and adjust curry powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper as desired. Let sit for 5 minutes before serving over cooked rice.
