Method
Season the sliced chicken thighs with paprika, garlic powder, turmeric, curry powder, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle olive oil over the seasoned chicken.
Pan‑fry the chicken for 7 minutes on each side until browned.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Chicken is browned on both sides. Keep pieces in contact with the pan as they sear.
Remove the chicken and set aside.
In the same pan, sauté diced onion and minced garlic for 2–3 minutes.
Add coconut milk and break in the Japanese curry cube, stirring until the cube dissolves.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Curry cube dissolves into coconut milk. Stir until the sauce is even.
Simmer the sauce for 2 minutes.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Sauce simmers gently. Keep the heat low so it stays smooth.
Return the sliced chicken to the pan and add cooked hot rice, stirring to combine.
Cook for an additional minute until everything is heated through.
Serve garnished with chopped green onions, a pinch of black sesame seeds, and a pinch of red chili flakes.
