Easy Chicken Curry :
At my house, chicken curry is always the solution to dinner or meal queries. Simple flavors and quickly ready, this recipe is definitely a favorite from many generations.
It pairs amazingly with rice/ roti/ quinoa/ dinner rolls or even a huge bowl of simple salad.
It’s something we can eat almost every day and it makes for great meal prep too.
Ingredients for Easy Chicken Curry:
The ingredients are pretty basic and found in most households, like:
Chicken – can use with bone, boneless or any part of the chicken like thighs, breast, drumsticks, etc.
Onion – I prefer using red onions for that authentic Indian taste, but any onion is good (red, white, yellow, shallot, any).
Tomato – I’m using fresh tomatoes, but you can use frozen, canned or even paste.
Ginger + Garlic – I’m using fresh, but you can use frozen or powdered too.
Spices – salt, red chili powder, garam masala, or curry powder.
Cilantro – this is optional
