Four Seasons Chicken Curry

SUBMITTED BY: CASEYJONES1 PHOTO BY: Caroline C

"A hot, sweet, sour and fragrant explosion of taste on a plate. The longer you leave to infuse the tastier it gets! You wont serve a better curry. Serve with rice or naan bread. Don't worry about the other whole spices, as the cooking will soften them. Enjoy as your tongue hits all the different combination of flavors."

  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
  • 1 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
  • 6 whole cloves
  • 6 whole cardamom pods
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 10 whole black peppercorns
  • 2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - diced
  • 3 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 1/2 cups water, or as needed

  1. Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat, and cook the onion until lightly browned.
