Prep Time: 50 mins Yield 4-6 servings
Ingredients
For the Curry
1 lb (500 g) chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-inch piece of ginger, minced
1-2 tbsp curry powder (adjust to taste)
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp chili powder (optional for heat)
1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 medium tomatoes, diced (or 1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes)
2 tbsp cooking oil (coconut or vegetable)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish
.125g RSO (Available in Dispensary)
For the Rice
1 cup basmati rice
2 cups water or chicken broth
1 tbsp butter or oil
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Cook the Rice
Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water or broth, butter, and salt. Bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Prepare the Curry
Heat oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
Sauté the onion until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and chili powder (if using). Stir well to toast the spices for 1 minute.
Cook the Chicken
Add the chicken pieces to the pot, stirring to coat them in the spices. Cook for 5 minutes, allowing the chicken to lightly brown.
Simmer the Curry
Pour in the coconut milk, chicken broth, and tomatoes. Stir well, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors meld together.
Infuse with RSO
Once the curry is cooked, remove it from the heat. Allow it to cool slightly (to prevent degrading the cannabinoids).
Stir in the RSO thoroughly to ensure even distribution.
Serve
Plate the curry over a bed of rice and garnish with fresh cilantro.
