Ingredients

3 servings Udon see notes for tips
5 pieces Chicken Thigh cut bite-size pieces
1 tsp Curry Powder
0.5 tsp Black Pepper
0.5 tsp Paprika
1 Onion sliced
2.5 cups Water
1 pack Japanese Curry Cubes 4 small cubes
1 can coconut milk full-fat, 400ml

Instructions

Pour hot water all over the udon before cooking to separate the udon. Drain and set aside.
Marinate the chicken with curry powder, paprika, and season with salt and pepper.
In a pan, drizzle in a little bit of boil, and turn the heat to medium. Pan-fry the chicken for 5-6 minutes or until brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Next, using the residual oil from the chicken, add in the sliced onion. Pan-fry for 2-3 minutes or until slightly translucent
Add in water and curry cubes, mix until curry cubes dissolve, then bring it to a simmer.
Once simmering, add in full-fat coconut milk, and mix well; bring to a simmer again.
Finally, add in the chicken and udon, and cook on high heat for another 3-4 minutes.

Notes

Pour hot water all over the udon before cooking to separate the udon. This step will cut down the cooking time and prevent the udon from becoming soggy. If you can only access vacuum-sealed udon, microwave for 30 seconds to help separate the udon before adding it to the sauce.
