Warm, fragrant, and full of flavor. This quick chicken curry gets its depth from our Chicken Bone Broth, Chismosa, and a blend of spices that make every bite feel cozy. Perfect for when you’re craving something comforting but still light.

To season the chicken:

• 1 whole chicken breast, diced

Instructions

 1. Season the chicken: In a small bowl, mix the spices for the chicken. Dice the chicken breast and toss with the seasoning mix.
