CHICKEN CURRY RECIPE (Guyanese Style) 🇬🇾🇬🇧🙏♥️

coconut milk

🥗Healthier: light coconut milk

💰Cheaper: milk + coconut extract

Light coconut milk reduces calories while maintaining flavor.

scotch bonnet pepper

🥗Healthier: jalapeño

💰Cheaper: bell pepper

Jalapeño provides heat with less intensity.

curry powder

🥗Healthier: homemade spice blend

💰Cheaper: store-brand curry powder

Homemade blends can be tailored for freshness.

chicken

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Tofu is a plant-based option, while thighs are more economical.

Wash chicken thoroughly in lime juice and vinegar, then season and marinate overnight.

Mix curry powder, jeera, garam masala, and green seasoning into a paste.

Heat vegetable oil in a pan and fry the curry paste until it changes color and separates from the oil.

Add the marinated chicken to the pan and coat well with the curry paste, allowing it to fry and release its natural juices.

Cover the pan and let the chicken cook in its juices for a while.

Add chopped onions, garlic, ginger, red bell peppers, celery, and carrots to the chicken.

Add chopped potatoes and mix everything to coat with the seasonings.

Add the habanero pepper for flavor without letting it dissolve into the curry.

Let the curry cook until the potatoes are tender and some sauce evaporates.

Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
