For a richer flavor, try using coconut cream instead of heavy cream. Adjust the amount of curry paste to control the spice level. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat. Serve with a side of naan bread for dipping in the sauce.
Experience the unexpected harmony of sweet and savory with this Maple Chicken Curry. Tender chicken and vibrant vegetables are simmered in a luscious, creamy curry sauce, delicately sweetened with pure maple syrup. A delightful twist on a classic that will tantalize your taste buds!
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and cook over medium heat until the onion is translucent and the pepper is slightly softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and chopped carrots. Continue to cook for another 3-5 minutes, until the carrots are slightly tender.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the heavy whipping cream and stir in the curry paste. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Stir in the maple syrup and continue to simmer for another 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and reached your desired consistency. Be careful not to overcook.
Serve hot over basmati rice, garnished with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired.
