Chicken curry is a delicious style of cooking chicken. The aroma of curry wafting the kitchen smells yummy 🙂 . Sauteed spices together with the curry, the chicken and coconut milk is simply flavorsome.
My husband loves curry so much. He is really into it that he claimed he can have it in three days straight. Whoa, isn’t it amazing?
Little darling Pumpkin learned to love anything I cook with curry just recently.
One time I cooked mung beans with pork and spinach and I added curry. She loved it a lot that since that time, she would rave anything I cooked with curry.
Chicken Curry Ingredients
Its great to note that there are only a handful of ingredients needed for this recipe. These are the following:
- Chicken – whatever cut you choose
- Coconut Milk – I personally used freshly pressed coconut milk because it is available as of cooking. However, if it is not available to you, there are ready available coconut milk/coconut cream contained in pouch or cans in the grocery store that you may use. Others come in the form of powder as well in which you just have to mix it with water to get the coconut milk consistency you desire.
- Curry Powder
- Potatoes
- Carrots
- Fish Sauce (patis)
- Onions
- Garlic
- Ginger
- Salt and Pepper
- Cooking oil
- Water
How to Make Chicken Curry

Once they become translucent and aromatic, put in the chicken and mix well. Add a little water, fish sauce, a pinch of salt and pepper and simmer for about 2 minutes.
