3. Create the Curry Sauce:

   • In another skillet, combine the coconut milk, curry powder, unsalted peanuts, and sugar.

   • Gently stir everything together, ensuring that the chicken is coated in that luscious curry coconut goodness.

6. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Plate up your fragrant curry coconut chicken, perhaps with a side of cauliflower rice or simply on its own.
   • Garnish with a sprinkle of chopped peanuts or fresh herbs for an extra touch of flavor and crunch.

Tips and Tricks:

• Curry Variation: If you’ve got a special curry blend from Ebay or your local market, now’s the time to use it! The flavors will truly shine through in this dish.
• Heat Level: Adjust the amount of curry powder to suit your taste buds. Add a pinch of chili flakes for an extra kick if you’re feeling adventurous.
• Make It Nutty: Love the crunch of nuts? Feel free to swap out the peanuts for cashews or almonds for a different twist.
• Meal Prep: This curry coconut chicken tastes even better the next day, so consider making a double batch for leftovers. The flavors have time to meld together, creating a truly scrumptious dish.
