Chicken Curry
- Ingredients
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 2 cups onions, finely chopped
- 2 sticks cinnamon
- 1/4 cup garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp ginger, minced
- 1 can diced tomatoes, drained
- 2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1 tbsp ground cumin
- 1 tbsp ground coriander
- 1 tbsp garam masala
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 kilo (2 lbs) skinless chicken thighs (tastes better if it's bone-in)
- 1 can chickpeas, drained
- 1 cup sour cream, cream, or coconut milk
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped (including stems)
- Instructions
- 1. In a large pan, heat oil on medium heat for one minute. Add onions and cinnamon, and saute for five to eight minutes, until onions are golden.
- 2. Add garlic and saute for four more minutes. Add ginger, tomatoes, salt, pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala and cayenne. Cook the masala for five minutes, until the oil separates.
- 3. Add chicken to the masala and stir thoroughly. Cook for 10 minutes, until the chicken looks cooked on the outside.
- 4. Add sour cream, cream or coconut milk, and stir. Increase the heat to medium-high. When curry starts to boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring two or three times, until chicken is completely cooked.
- Note: poke the thighs with a knife. If the meat is still pink, cook for five more minutes.
- 5. Remove and discard the cinnamon sticks and add chickpeas.
- 6. If using bone-in chicken, cool curry for at least half an hour and transfer cooked chicken to a mixing bowl. After chicken has cooled a bit, peel meat off the bones and discard the bones. Stir the chicken back into the curry and heat medium heat until it starts to boil lightly.
- 7. Stir in cilantro immediately before serving.
