  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 13 minute

Ingredients

– 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
– 1 large onion, finely chopped
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
– 1 can (14 ounces) coconut milk
– 2 tablespoons curry powder (or to taste)
– 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
– 1 teaspoon cumin powder
– ½ teaspoon red chili powder (adjust for spiciness)
– 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
– Salt to taste
– Fresh cilantro for garnish
– Cooked rice or naan for serving


Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your delicious Mango Chicken Curry:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with salt, curry powder, and half of the minced garlic. If time allows, let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor.

2. Sauté the Onion: In a large pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

3. Add Garlic and Ginger: Toss in the remaining garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for an additional 2–3 minutes until fragrant.

4. Cook the Chicken: Add the marinated chicken to the pan. Cook until the chicken is browned, about 5-7 minutes.

5. Incorporate Spices: Sprinkle in turmeric, cumin, and red chili powder. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly with spices.

6. Pour in Coconut Milk: Slowly add the coconut milk to the pan, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer.

7. Add Mango: Once the mixture comes to a gentle boil, fold in the diced mango. Reduce heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the chicken to cook through and the flavors to meld.

8. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the curry and adjust salt or spice levels if needed.

9. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro.

10. Serve: Serve hot over cooked rice or with naan.
