How to Make Chicken Thigh With Curry Sauce

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or oil in a large skillet or wok over low heat. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, and sauté until fragrant (about 5 minutes).
  2. Stir in 2 tablespoons of your favorite curry paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, over low heat.
  3. Remove the onion and curry mixture from the pan and set aside.
  4. Make several vertical slits in 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1 pound).
  5. In the same pan, add the chicken thighs, 1 cup of chopped vegetables (such as bell peppers, carrots, and broccoli), and 1/2 cup of chicken broth.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  7. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  8. Stir in the reserved onion and curry paste mixture to thicken the sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
  9. Serve the chicken and curry sauce over steamed rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions (optional).
