Ingredients

  • 300g chicken breast, diced
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2-inch piece of ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Kitchen Tools

Preparation

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic, grated ginger, curry powder, turmeric, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Cook for a few minutes until fragrant.

Add diced chicken breast to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides. Pour in coconut milk and diced mango. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Let the curry simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.

Serve the Mango-Coconut Chicken Curry over steamed rice and garnish with fresh cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.

Tips

For added depth of flavor, you can roast the diced mango in the oven for 10 minutes before adding it to the curry. This will caramelize the sugars in the mango and give the dish a sweet and smoky taste.
