I’m excited to share a few variations on the classic Curry Chicken Roti recipe. This dish is a staple in many Caribbean and South Asian households, and there are endless ways to make it your own.
The key ingredients in this dish are chicken, curry powder, and roti (a type of flatbread). From there, you can add any number of additional ingredients to give the dish your own personal twist.
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Add some chopped veggies like onion, bell pepper, or zucchini to the chicken curry for extra flavor and nutrition.
- Make it a bit spicier by adding some extra curry powder, or some fresh or dried chili peppers.
- For a richer dish, add some coconut milk to the curry sauce.
- If you’re looking for a lighter version, try using chicken breast instead of dark meat, and use light coconut milk or even water in place of the full-fat version.
- Serve your Curry Chicken Roti with a side of plain yogurt or raita (a yogurt and cucumber sauce) to cool things down.
- Finally, if you want to get really creative, try making your own roti dough from scratch. It’s not as difficult as it sounds, and it’s a great way to impress your friends and family!
