Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.

05

Step

Serve the Filipino Chicken Curry hot over a bed of freshly cooked rice. Enjoy!

For a richer flavor, consider browning the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, peas, or eggplant to customize the curry to your liking.
Adjust the amount of curry powder to suit your spice preference. Start with less and add more to taste.
If you prefer a creamier curry, you can stir in a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt at the end of cooking.
Garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions for added flavor and visual appeal.
