Chinese Chicken Curry

chicken

soy sauce

tsp corn starch

vegetable oil

onion (chopped)

tbsp grated ginger

garlic

curry powder

turmeric

Chinese 5 spice powder

chicken stock

potatoes (medium)

red pepper (sliced)

150 grams/1 cup sugar snap peas

salt

cilantro/coriander

In a medium bowl mix the soy sauce with corn starch, then add chicken pieces and set aside until needed.&nbsp;

Prepare the vegetables by chopping up the onion, peeling and grating ginger, peeling and cutting the potatoes and mincing the garlic.&nbsp;

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or a wok and add the chopped onions and ginger. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, then add minced garlic and cook for a few seconds. Make sure not to burn the garlic.&nbsp;

Then add the curry powder, turmeric and the 5 spice powder, mix briefly until you can smell the aromatics. Add the chicken together with the marinade and cook it for a few minutes, so the chicken is sealed but not cooked all the way through. Add the chicken stock and deglaze the pan by scraping up the bits stuck to the bottom of it with a wooden spatula. Then add potatoes and bring everything to a boil, lower the heat and let it simmer uncovered for 15 minutes.&nbsp;

Then add sliced red pepper and sugar snap peas and cook for 5 minutes longer. At the end, taste and add a pinch of salt if necessary. Serve over steamed white or brown rice, sprinkled with some fresh chopped cilantro and green onions.&nbsp;

I love Chinese chicken curry and this recipe is excellent, I've lost count of how many times I've made it. My husband really likes it too, I'm making it again on Saturday for some friends. Do you think it would be ok to freeze it?

Yum yum, this so good, will be on my fav list, only question I have is that you didn't state what type of curry to use, I only had Clive of India available so although sensational it smells more indian than chinese, but who's complaining

delicious recipe. I don't think many Chinese takeaways could do better

Hi Julia. Lovely curry. Flavours blend really well together. Only thing I differently was to blend half to get a thicker sauce. Thanks for sharing. X

Since my local Chinese Restaurant closed down, I've been trying to find a recipe that's similar to the curry served there. This curry recipe, however, tastes *way* better then the one there. I highly recommend that you make this.

Easy recipe to follow and absolutely delicious. I always make Indian style curries but the Chinese spice was a lovely change. Can’t take the credit even though I discovered your recipe online...my daughter made it as the 4th dinner during lockdown. Mind you we are now in week 12.

I just tried this recipe tonight for dinner and it was delicious especially given that it was my first time making curry. The only thing is I feel that it's missing something that could elevate the flavor even more. Also 400 ml of chicken stock didn't seem to be enough to cover the veggies, potatos and chicken.

This chicken souvlaki recipe is easy, straightforward and delicious. The beautiful flavour comes from a simple yogurt marinade, enhanced by the smoke of a grill.
