Dairy-Free Asian Chicken Curry:
Would you believe I lived in Japan in my twenties and ate curry 3-4 times a week? So, of course, I had to create a recipe for it. Needless to say, I absolutely love curry. Therefore, I wanted to make an Asian curry to the best of my memory and ability. My hope is you like it as much as my family does. Not to mention, you can use homemade chicken broth or store-bought. I used Kirkland chicken stock. However, you could use homemade chicken broth instead. Instead of soy sauce, I used coconut aminos and Garam Masala in this recipe. In fact, I like to use the Microplane for fresh ginger and garlic. Indeed, I usually use my wok to cook the chicken but you can cook it in a pan on the stove as well.
The fact is I absolutely adore spices and have a large variety of spices in my pantry. Honestly, if you don’t have curry in your pantry you could make your own blend.
Not only is the flavor out of this world but it is quick and easy to make in under 30 minutes. So, if you are looking for a quick and delicious dinner check out this recipe.
Amazon has Garam Masala.
