Chicken Curry Chili is a hearty meal the kind that sticks to your ribs and keeps you going, it’s full of flavor and is one of my favorite chili recipes.
This chicken curry chili is simple to make and comes together fast, it can be made the day before for a quick weekday meal.
I have mentioned before that Sunday evening is a time when some of my siblings will gather at my mom’s house. A few weeks ago when we got to my mom’s house my sister had a pot of chili simmering on the stove.
When she told me it was chicken curry chili I was surprised. Really, curry flavoring in chili form? Of course, I had to take a taste. It was delicious!
So it was put on my list of items to make for my blog… like make as soon as possible.
Even though it was delicious, I did tweak it just a bit. You know us food bloggers… always having to put our own spin on every recipe we make. This is a recipe that will be made over and over again this winter.
How to make chicken curry chili:

This sounds so good. A fusion of food cultures that works well in my mind. I’ve the white meat of a rotisserie chicken in the fridge that’s perfect for this. I see this for lunch tomorrow…
Looks mouthwatering! I can never resist a good curry dish.
I love a good chili, but I’ve never thought about making it with curry powder. What a fun twist! I’m traveling this week, but I’m definitely putting this on the radar for when I get back in town. Sounds delicious, Dawn!
I’ve never had curry in chili myself, but it looks incredible! Will have to give it a try! 🙂
