Gather all of the marinade ingredients and mix together with the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best!)

Heat the oil on high in a large fry pan. Place chicken in the frypan and cook for a few minutes on each side. Add in the curry ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.

Serve with cooked basmati rice.

Enjoy!
