Ingredients

• 0.25 Cups (c) olive oil
• 2 Large onions, minced
• 0.33 Cups (c) curry powder
• 6 Skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, sliced
• 2 Cloves garlic, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) ginger, grated
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) salt
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) black pepper, ground
• 1 Cup (c) coconut milk
• 0.5 Cup (c) chicken broth
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) lemon juice
• 0.25 Cup (c) fresh cilantro, torn

Steps

1. Gather all the ingredients and prepare them as described.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced onions and sauté until they are soft and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
3. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Gradually add the curry powder, stirring continuously to ensure it blends well with the onions and spices.
5. Add the sliced chicken to the skillet, ensuring they are well coated with the curry mixture. Season with salt and ground black pepper.
6. Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
7. Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Stir in the lemon juice and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
8. Garnish with torn fresh cilantro before serving.
9. Serve hot over a bed of steamed rice, accompanied by mango chutney if desired.
