Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless chicken thighs (skinless)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger (minced)
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium carrot (diced)
  • 1 medium potato (diced)
  • 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  3. In another pot, heat oil over medium heat and sauté chopped onions and ginger until fragrant.
  4. Add diced carrots and potatoes along with curry powder. Stir to combine.
  5. Pour in vegetable broth, simmering on low heat for about 20-25 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  6. Serve the crispy katsu topped with the rich curry sauce over fluffy rice.
