Instructions

  1. Step 1

    In a large pot, heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil over medium-high. Add 1 chopped onion and 3 minced garlic cloves; cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add 2 tbsp curry powder and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add 1.5 lb chicken thighs, cut into chunks; brown on all sides, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add 2 chopped tomatoes and 3 cups mixed vegetables (carrots, cauliflower, green beans). Stir to coat with spices.

  4. Step 4

    Pour in 2 cups water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
