Chef GJ's Chicken Curry Dinner

What to prep in advance:

If using a whole chicken cut it into 8 or so pieces.  If interested here is a great video on how to butcher a whole chicken.  In the video Natasha de-bones the chicken, I find to get more flavour in your curry, leave the bone-in.

Have your ingredients measured out and ready to go

Kitchen Equipment:
  • Thick bottomed pan (this is what the curry will be made in, needs to be big enough to hold your chicken.
