Spicy Curried Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse chicken pieces and pat dry. Set aside. Grind poppy seeds into a paste.
• In a large skillet, saute onions and green chiles in oil until golden brown. Add ginger garlic paste and continue to saute. Add poppy seed paste and reserved chicken pieces, continuing to saute. Stir all together; after chicken is well mixed with the 'gravy', add the red chili powder and pour 2 cups of water over the mixture. Cover skillet and let simmer about 12 to 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
• After chicken is 'well-boiled' (the oil should be floating on top of the skillet liquid), add the garam masala and turmeric powder and turn off the stove. Stir all together and serve.

Steps:

• In a food processor combine the onion, garlic, jalapeno, garam masala, cumin, and cloves. Process to make a chunky paste.
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion mixture, curry powder, and 1/4 cup water. Let fry 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add chicken pieces, potatoes, and salt to taste. Add water to cover, up to 3 cups, and bring to a boil. Simmer until the chicken and potatoes are cooked through, about 30 minutes. Serve over rice.

Steps:

• Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds; scoop onto a plate.
• Add the chicken to the skillet, season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir-fry until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet, then add the bell pepper, corn, curry powder, ginger and 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir-fry until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, chicken and any juices to the skillet and cook, stirring to break up the egg and mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Stir in the scallions and chili oil and serve.

Steps:

• Heat butter and oil in a large skillet. When hot, add chicken and saute (in a couple of batches, if necessary, to avoid crowding) over medium to high heat for a total of 6 to 7 minutes, until brown on all sides. Transfer chicken to a large casserole or Dutch oven and discard all but 2 to 3 tablespoons of the accumulated fat in the skillet.
• To the hot fat in the skillet add onions and saute for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat, stirring, then add flour, curry powder, cumin powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt and garlica and mix well with the onions. Add the water, stir, bring to a boil and pour mixture over chicken.
• Add apple, banana and tomato, bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer gently for about 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle mint on top and serve immediately with brown rice and onion pilaf.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with 2 teaspoons salt.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat; partially cook the chicken in the hot oil in batches until completely browned. Transfer the browned chicken breasts to a plate and set aside.
• Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium-high; add the onion, garlic, and ginger to the oil remaining in the skillet and cook and stir until the onion turns translucent, about 8 minutes. Stir the curry powder, cumin, turmeric, coriander, cayenne, and 1 tablespoon of water into the onion mixture; allow to heat together for about 1 minute while stirring. Mix the tomatoes, yogurt, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, and 1 teaspoon salt into the mixture. Return the chicken breast to the skillet along with any juices on the plate. Pour 1/2 cup water into the mixture; bring to a boil, turning the chicken to coat with the sauce. Sprinkle the garam masala and 1 tablespoon cilantro over the chicken.
• Cover the skillet and simmer until the chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle with lemon juice to serve.
