SOUTHERN (?!) CHICKEN CURRY

My sister-in-law works at a Southern restaurant in Mississippi, and surprisingly they have chicken curry on the menu. She got the recipe from the owner, and it's become one of my favorite chicken curry recipes. There's nothing Southern-tasting about it, but you'll be licking the flavorful sauce off of the plate. Try to use a high-quality curry powder, as it really makes a difference. I also like serving this with shredded coconut and chopped green onions.

I served this at a dinner party and it was very popular. Do not expect heat or intensity or even subtlety. Instead you will have a rather heady, aromatic dish. Service with rice or rice vermicelli.

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, and seeded
1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt (8 ounces), whisked until smooth
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
Chili powder, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Grate enough cucumber on the large holes of a box grater to measure 1/2 cup. Transfer to a clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
  • Stir together cucumber, yogurt, and salt in a small bowl. Stir before using, and sprinkle with chili powder.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. For this recipe, bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs are the best choice. They're flavorful and juicy, and they hold up well to the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of spices. The spices in this recipe are what give it its unique flavor. Be sure to use a good quality garam masala, and don't be afraid to adjust the amounts of each spice to suit your own taste.
  • Cook the chicken slowly. Low and slow is the key to tender, flavorful chicken. Simmer the chicken for at least 1 hour, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve with rice or naan. Chicken curry is traditionally served with rice or naan. Rice is a good option for soaking up the sauce, while naan can be used to scoop up the chicken and sauce.

This chicken curry recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy a classic Indian dish. With its tender chicken, flavorful sauce, and variety of spices, this curry is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
