Chinese Chicken Curry

by
Prep Time: 20
Cook Time: 20-25
Ingredients
- 1lb of boneless/skinless chicken cut into bite size pieces
- 1 can (15oz) coconut milk
- 1 Tbs garlic grated or minced
- 1 Tbs of ginger grated or minced
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 2Tbs Chinese curry powder
- 1/4 tsp of Chinese five spice powder
- 1 tsp of red chili flakes (or to taste)
- 1 medium onion chopped (large)
- 2 medium potatoes cubed into bite size pieces
- 1 bunch of broccoli florets (or frozen peas)
- 1 cup of carrots sliced
- 1 cup of chicken broth or water/bullion equivalent
Instructions
1. Heat a large pan with 2Tbs of canola oil. When oil is very hot add your chicken and fry for a minute. Then add your ginger/garlic paste and stir fry for another 1-2 minutes.
2. Next add your diced potatoes and stir fry for another minute.
3. Then add your curry powder, chili flakes, five spice powder and stir fry for another minute.
4. Next add your soy sauce, chicken broth and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer and allow the potatoes to be almost fully cooked. Note: Taste for seasoning. If you require more salt flavor, add a little more soy sauce because potatoes tend to absorb a lot of salt.
5. Finally add your broccoli (or peas) and carrots. Cook for another few minutes until the broccoli and carrots are tender crisp and the potatoes are fully cooked. Note: Your "gravy" should thicken up on it's own due to the starch in the potato. If you need to thicken up your gravy, just take 1Tbs of cornstarch to 2Tbs of water and mix well then add it to the gravy and allow to boil until the gravy thickens up.
6. Serve with hot rice. Enjoy.
Special Notes
If you cannot find a Chinese curry powder try to add 1 1/2 Tbs of McCormick brand curry powder or Madras curry powder and 1/2 a tsp of Chinese five spice.

Delicious! Before I developed allergies - I loved curry - but it was always the mild kind (that has cinnamon in it). I've never had the vegetables....great idea!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely - milder than most, but adds that great flavor. I'm hungry!
ReplyDeleteIt's very delicious. I feel really very hungry after seen this yummy Chinese chicken curry. I want to eat this curry.
ReplyDeleteYummy Chinese Chicken Curry and nicely served.Happy and Delicious Diwali to U.
ReplyDeleteSo you think curry powder and 5 spice are about what were in this? I'm fascinated by the curry showing up in an oriental dish as well (and love the idea). Your dish looks so, so good.
ReplyDeleteYum! This looks like the perfect dish for this cold weather. Thanks for the instructions to use if you don't have that specific curry powder. I will be trying this soon! :)
ReplyDeleteSounds wonderful! I love Asian curries, especially Japanese ones, so I'll definitely give this one a try. :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks so much better than the bowl of cereal I just had! Very nice presentation.
ReplyDeleteYUM.. looks so comforting and delicious.
ReplyDeleteI'm in awe of anyone who can just make up a dish and have it turn out so well! Here you did it easily...and it looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteNice combination!
ReplyDeleteThis is so interesting. I haven't seen these spices in my grocery store before, but then again, I haven't been looking for them. Also, thanks for the notes! I'm excited to make this even if my store really doesn't have the proper spices.
ReplyDeleteFive spice is truly a culinary gift. I love the flavor it gives to every dish I've tried it in (it's my secret to quick pho broth). Very good combo!
ReplyDeleteI have never had curry wih potaotes in it. Sounds like a great recipe. We are big fans of curry in this house (well hubby and I are).
ReplyDeleteThis looks terrific, and so doable for a weeknight dinner!
ReplyDeleteLooks perfect!!
ReplyDeleteCurry really is a global dish with so many versions from around the world. I love curry in all its many forms and flavors, great post!
ReplyDeleteI love curry and I love all of the great ingredients you put into this dish!
ReplyDeleteChicken and curry--sounds awesome to me! The perfect meal :)
ReplyDeletePerfection. My sis just sent me five spice and I had no clue what to do with it. lol
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing. Iwouldn't think of curry as chinese, but this looks pretty tasty!
ReplyDeletethe curry looks tasty!
ReplyDeleteand a great twist with a curry chinese version :)
I never knew that a broccoli can serve in a curry, tq for sharing! ;)
I love Indian curry and the Chinese version of curry. The Chinese version is much more mild. It doesn't have the spice zest of Indian curry...but wow. Both are incredibly delicious...and altogether entirely different from each other!
ReplyDeleteYum much? This curry looks so delicious! I love the colour, it looks so rich!
ReplyDeleteCheers

love your cute little face
DeleteHmm, now this sounds like a great curry. Like the use of coconut milk too.
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with a good stir fry! This looks like an awesome weeknight meal, Ramona! :D
ReplyDeleteI have been making this recipe for the last year or two now. My whole family loves it! I use pork loin instead of chicken and I omit the potatoes. I add fresh mushrooms, a can of water chestnuts, and a can of baby corn. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteHi Deanna! Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback! I will definitely give pork a try the next time I make this dish. :)
DeletePS.. I posted part of your comments on FB... :)
Why is it not mentioned as to when the onion should be added? ijs
ReplyDeleteSorry for my oversight. I have corrected the directions to include when to add the onions. You add it with the potatoes. :)
DeleteCan you please let me know in CUps and Table spoon please for small quantity Rezepte
