Szechuan Chicken Curry

Serves 4
Total Time 30 minutes
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 10.75oz can tomato puree
  • ¾ cup Kikkoman® Szechuan Spicy Sauce
  • 1 medium onion, quartered
  • 1 tablespoon garam masala, divided
  • 2 teaspoons turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken thigh
  • ¼ cup plain yogurt or sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into cubes

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven broiler on high. Line a sheet pan with foil, set aside. 
  2. Prepare sauce: To blender, add tomato puree, Kikkoman® Szechuan Spicy Sauce, onion, garam masala, turmeric and ½ teaspoon of salt. Blend until smooth. Pour sauce into a large saucepan over medium high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer sauce for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. While the sauce is simmering, prepare chicken. In a medium bowl, combine cubed chicken, yogurt, oil and remaining ½ teaspoon of salt. Place coated chicken on the prepared sheet pan. Broil until the chicken is slightly charred and cooked, about 10 minutes. 
  4. Once chicken is ready, transfer to sauce. Stir in water and increase heat to medium-high, bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and continue to simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
  5. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in butter.  Transfer szechuan chicken curry to serving bowls.
