Description

A delicious coconut curry dish featuring tender chicken thighs and vibrant vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces chicken thighs (boneless and skinless)
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  1. In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook until browned on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  2. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, garlic, and red bell pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes.

  5. Return the chicken to the skillet, cover, and let it simmer in the sauce for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
