How to Make Southern Chicken Curry
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 tablespoons of curry powder. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are softened.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of grated fresh ginger, and 1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces.
- Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the chicken is lightly browned and the flour is cooked.
- Pour in 2 cups of chicken broth, stir well, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Stir in 1 cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Cook for 1 minute, or until heated through. Do not boil.
- Serve hot over rice, garnished with shredded coconut and chopped green onions.
