Directions

  1. Heat butter and olive oil over medium heat in a saucepan. Add rice once butter has melted and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in chicken broth and stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and fluffy, about 20 minutes.

  2. While rice is cooking, heat a large saucepan over medium heat, add olive oil. Mix in onion and garlic and cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and transfer onto a plate.

  3. Add tomatoes, coconut milk, cumin, curry powder, chili powder, and paprika to onion-garlic mixture. Cook for 5 minutes, add chicken back into mixture. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer until rice has finished cooking. Serve rice with curried chicken mixture on top.
