Chicken Curry: Flavorful Dinner in Under 20 Minutes

This adaptable Chicken Curry dish comes together in about 20 minutes making it perfect for busy weeknights.

My favorite part of this dish growing up was the condiments. Mom would serve it with 5-6 different toppings and we could each add our own. I usually added lots of everything just because I could.

Keep this recipe in your meal plan rotation, mixing it up with turkey, shrimp or even tofu instead of the chicken.
