One-Pot Chicken with Squash Curry Recipe is Bursting with Fall Flavor
Curry and coconut milk combine to give this chicken dinner a delicious twist
In the fall, I love to make squash dishes. The yummy vegetable pairs especially well with curry powder, which gives it some spice, along with coconut milk for a subtle sweetness. That was the inspiration for this chicken with squash curry recipe. It makes a complete and delicious dinner, and it’s simple to whip up. It only requires one pot, so cleanup is a breeze too. Once you taste it, you’ll be hooked. It’s so good!
For this recipe we use red kuri squash, which has a mild pumpkin flavor that pairs perfectly with the heat of curry. But if you can’t find the kuri variety, butternut or acorn squash would also taste delicious. We cook the squash with garlic, curry, ginger and coconut milk, along with broccoli and chickpeas, and then serve it with sauteed chicken for a kick of protein.
