Spicy Chicken Curry

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 12 pieces of bone-in chicken—drumsticks, thighs, or wings
- 1 large white onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons Garam Masala
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 large can diced tomatoes (28 ounces)
- 1 can coconut milk (15 ounces)
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons water
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
Preparation Instructions
- Brown the chicken—Heat oil in a Dutch oven over high heat, add chicken and cook till golden brown on all sides. Remove chicken and set aside.
- Make the curry—Add onions to Dutch oven and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and spices—and a splash of olive oil if mixture looks dry—and sauté for another minute. Add tomatoes and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Stir in coconut milk and return chicken to pot. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer till chicken is cooked through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- Garnish and serve—In a small bowl, stir together yogurt, 2 tablespoons of water and a pinch of salt. Drizzle yogurt sauce over curry, top with chopped cilantro, and serve piping hot.
Tips
Swap chicken for about 3 pounds of diced Yukon gold, russet, or sweet potatoes. Add potatoes at the same time as tomatoes and proceed with the recipe.
