Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken:
- Cut the chicken into pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook the Onion, Garlic, and Ginger:
- Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onions, and cook until they are golden and soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the Spices:
- Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and paprika. Cook for about a minute to let the spices release their flavors.
- Brown the Chicken:
- Add the chicken pieces to the pot and stir well to coat them with the spices. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the chicken starts to brown.
- Add Tomatoes and Coconut Milk:
- Pour in the diced tomatoes and coconut milk. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
- Simmer:
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the curry simmer gently for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and the sauce has thickened.
- Final Seasoning:
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro just before serving. Serve the chicken curry over cooked rice for a satisfying meal.
