Chicken Curry & Saucy Dishes: The best chicken curry recipes use dark meat — bone-in thighs or drumsticks. The collagen and fat survive long sauce cooking. Boneless breast in curry is a compromise that produces dry protein in a sauce that needed better chicken.
Which Curry Is the Best Chicken Curry?
According to Coco, Butter Chicken (Murgh Makhani) is the most-misunderstood chicken curry in the world — it requires charred tandoor chicken, not sauteed. Thai Green Curry requires fresh paste, not jarred. Chicken Tikka Masala requires charred tikka, properly reduced sauce. All three appear in the Chickeeen stamp archive.
