Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs, diced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste

  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add diced chicken thighs and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.

  8. While curry simmers, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
  9. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden brown and tender, about 5-6 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
