Delicious Mango Chicken Curry Recipe for an Exotic Meal

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 lb chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 cup mango, pureed (fresh or canned)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Sauté the Aromatics

    Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until fragrant and the onion is translucent.

    Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
  2. Cook the Chicken

    Add the cubed chicken to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned on all sides.

    Ensure the chicken is cooked through.
  3. Add Spices

    Stir in the curry powder and cook for an additional minute to release the flavors.

    Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
  4. Incorporate Mango

    Pour in the mango puree and coconut milk. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.

    Adjust the sweetness by adding more mango if desired.
  5. Simmer the Curry

    Reduce heat and let the curry simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.

    Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
