Recipe Tips

If you want to make this recipe even easier, you can use pre-cooked chicken. Just add it to the skillet after you’ve cooked the onion and garlic. You can also use leftover rice instead of cooking it from scratch. Make sure to let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together and make the chicken more tender. This curry chicken and rice recipe is also great for meal prep. You can make a big batch and store it in the fridge or freezer for later. It’s a great option for a quick and easy lunch or dinner.
