Simple and Spicy African Curry
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes, drained
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken, bones and skin removed, cut into pieces
  • 1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 lemon, juiced
Instructions
1
Preheat your cooking surface by heating a substantial, thick-walled pan over an intermediate temperature. Introduce the olive oil into the pan and initiate a gentle simmering process. Combine the onion, garlic, and bay leaf within the pan and continue to cook until the onion reaches a light brown hue. Combine the tomatoes, curry powder, and salt in the pan, allowing the mixture to cook for approximately 5 minutes. Introduce the chicken into the pan and continue cooking for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink and its juices flow freely.

Gradually decrease the pan's heat to a low setting. Employ continuous stirring motions as you gradually incorporate the coconut milk into the pan over an extended period of about 10 minutes. Introduce a squeeze of lemon juice just prior to serving the dish.
