Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir well and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. Add the curry powder and turmeric to the skillet, stirring to coat the onion mixture. Cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.

  4. Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes.

  5. Pour in the coconut milk and diced tomatoes, stirring well to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  6. Reduce the heat to low and let the curry simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the chicken to cook through.

  7. Taste the curry and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Add the soy sauce and stir to incorporate.

  8. Serve the Authentic Chinese Takeaway Chicken Curry over cooked rice, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves for an added burst of flavor.
