2019-05-25 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 6 min

Chantal (Foodie Beauty) demonstrates her easy chicken curry recipe, showing ingredients, step-by-step cooking, and tips for simmering to develop flavor. She browns cubed boneless skinless chicken breasts with onions and spices (paprika, garlic powder, Cool Runnings Jamaican style curry powder), adds Grace Organic coconut milk and crushed bouillon cube (jumbo, from an African grocery), simmers until the sauce reduces and the coconut oil separates, finishes with a dash of sriracha, and serves over steamed rice (or cauliflower rice).
