One Pot Yogurt Chicken Curry

Sarah- First of all Happy New Year! Hope you all are having an awesome year so far, I hope it gets better and better by the day as the year goes on.This week's recipe is Yogurt Chicken Curry is my favorite chicken curry to make. It's my go to comfort food other than Daal Chawal (lentils and rice) and pasta. In addition, whenever my toddler isn't feeling well she always ask for this curry.

This recipe came about when I was living with my youngest brother at home while my parents were out of the country. I didn't know much about cooking so it was a lot of trial and errors. This recipe is all about spices and seasoning plus yogurt. I have tried it with heavy whipping cream in the past but I always came back to adding yogurt.

You won't find a recipe like this. This recipe is filled with flavor and this recipe is toddler approved. I hope you give this recipe a try.
