  • Garlic - 3 cloves, minced
  • Ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
  • Bell pepper - 1 medium, diced
  • Carrot - 1 medium, sliced
  • Zucchini - 1 medium, diced
  • Coconut milk - 200 ml
  • Vegetable oil - 2 tablespoons

  • Salt - 1 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon

  • Rice - 1 cup (uncooked)
  • Water - 2 cups (for rice)

Steps

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  3. Stir in the diced chicken breast and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the curry powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to coat the chicken.
  5. Incorporate the bell pepper, carrot, and zucchini, cooking for another 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
  6. Pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine, and let the mixture simmer for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly.
  7. While the curry simmers, rinse the uncooked rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then combine with 2 cups of water in a saucepan.
  8. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
  9. Serve the curry over the rice, garnished with fresh cilantro.
