The perfect curry chicken: some advice
- You can use all parts of the chicken, as long as they are boneless.
- The recipe does not include aromatic herbs or spices other than curry powder, but you can add them according to your taste.
- Adding vegetable broth is optional; using it makes a creamier dish and adds flavor and intensity to the curry. It can also be used beef stock.
- Coat the chicken breast pieces in flour and quickly cook them in butter to create a slight crust. It prevents the chicken from drying out too much during cooking.
