Mango Chicken Curry

Ingredients

  • vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
  • large onion (1)
  • red bell pepper, chopped (1/2)
  • garlic cloves, minced (2)
  • fresh minced ginger (2 tablespoons)
  • yellow curry powder (2 tablespoons)
  • ground cumin (1/2 teaspoon)
  • mangos, peeled and diced (2)
  • white vinegar (2 tablespoons)
  • coconut milk (1.5 oz can (399 mL))
  • skinless boneless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces (1 1/4 pound (2-3 breasts))

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat.
  2. Add onions and bell pepper cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute.
  4. Add the curry powder and cumin, cook for a few more minutes.

    The spices will absorb some of the oil, so if anything begins to stick too much to the bottom of the pan, add a little more oil to the pan.

  5. Add the vinegar, coconut milk, and one of the two chopped mangoes to the pan
  6. Increase the heat and bring to a boil, then lower the heat to maintain a low simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. 3 Purée sauce: Remove pan from heat. Scoop the sauce into a blender. Purée the sauce, pulsing until smooth. Return the sauce to the pan.
  8. Add chicken pieces and raisins to the pan. Return to a low simmer. Cover the pan and let cook for 8-10 minutes.
  9. Add remaining chopped mango to the pan.
  10. Adjust seasonings: If a little too sweet, add a little more vinegar. If not sweet enough, you can add a dash of sugar. Add salt and pepper to taste.
