Easy Curried Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breasts or tenders cut into 1-2'' cubes
  • 1 Tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp curry powder
  • 1 Tbsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp ground coriander seed
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste about 1/4 teaspoon each
  • 1 sweet yellow onion diced
  • 2 red bell peppers chopped
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic minced or pressed
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1 Tbsp raw honey
  • 2 cups low sodium or homemade bone broth I used chicken broth, vegetable broth works great too!

Instructions

  • Place the chicken in a large bowl together with the oil, curry powder, turmeric, coriander, cinnamon, sea salt, and pepper.
  • Toss well to get all the pieces nicely coated, then cover and refrigerate for at least 30 min (overnight is awesome too).
  • Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and brown the chicken on all sides, for about 4 minutes. Stir in your onions, bell peppers, garlic, then continue cooking and stirring frequently for about 2-3 minutes more.
  • Pour in the broth, then add in bay leaves and your honey, stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan.
  • Reduce heat to a LOW simmer then cover with a lid. Simmer for about 10-12 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove bay leaves before serving.
  • Enjoy your chicken curry over the top of cooked brown rice, or quinoa and with roasted veggies.
