This keto chicken curry is made with mushrooms, bell pepper and coconut milk
This keto chicken and mushroom curry is made with coconut milk. The gravy has a delicious peppery taste coming from green bell pepper, black pepper powder and green chillies. Its not too hot because coconut milk balances out the heat. This curry tastes delicious with keto rice, keto roti or keto bread
Make 1 tbsp. of crushed ginger and garlic using a grinder jar (equal parts of ginger and garlic)
I used chicken thighs for this recipe. You can also use chicken breast or whole chicken (with bones) instead
Add coriander powder, 1/2 tsp. black pepper powder and 1/2 tsp. garam masala powder and 1 tsp. of the freshly crushed ginger garlic
Mix well and let it marinate for 30 min at least at room temperature (or ~2 hrs in the refrigerator)
Blend bell pepper, a handful of coriander leaves and green chilies (to taste) using 1/4 cup of water. Set this aside
Set a pot on medium/high heat and add 2 tbsp. coconut oil
Add cinnamon stick, onion and the rest of the ginger garlic paste
Stir fry for ~30 sec
Add chicken and stir fry for 5 min or until the chicken pieces brown a little
Add sliced mushrooms and stir for a minute
Add bell pepper/coriander paste with some salt to taste
Turn down the heat to low, place the lid on and let the chicken cook through (for ~5-10 min)
Add 1/2 tsp. black pepper powder, more salt (if needed) and coconut milk
Place the lid on and let the gravy simmer for 2 min
Add 1/2 tsp. of garam masala powder, 1 tbsp. of dried fenugreek leaves (Kasuri Methi, crush between your palms and add) and some coriander leaves
Simmer the gravy till it reaches your desired consistency (keep in mind that the coconut milk thickens a little when it cools down)
