WEEKEND CHICKEN CURRY

weekend-chicken-curry-nairobi-kitchen-recipe

Don't you just love the weekend? And what better way to enjoy it than with some warm, comforting Curry, Chicken Curry to be precise. The original Indian Curry includes Turmeric and Coconut Milk. My Chicken Curry did not include those but it still had all that delicious heat that goes with Curries. Hot and spicy, yet delicious and smooth. Chicken Curry can be made in various ways, as long as you have the spices and Yogurt or Coconut Milk to make it thick and creamy. I love Chicken and I would have it any way it was prepared, fried, steamed, stewed, I love me my Chicken! I can have it with wholewheat Chapati, Rice or even Ugali.This Curry turned out better than I expected as it filled that need for spice yet was not overwhelmingly hot! Most Chicken Curries that I found used Chicken Thighs, I had Chicken Breasts which worked well too. A hearty healthy Chicken meal to indulge in this weekend. You can even have this Chicken Curry with this Pasta, delicious!

-The Chicken Curry should be thick, if too heavy you can add a little water. Since I did not use Turmeric I added Royco spice just to add an extra taste
