Step-by-Step Cooking Directions
Prepare the Chicken Fillet
Start with 3 whole chicken fillets (breasts). Clean and pat them dry with paper towels.
Slice the fillets into medium-sized pieces—thick enough to stay juicy, but thin enough to cook through. You can butterfly them or cut into strips depending on your serving style.
Season the Chicken
Place the sliced chicken in a large bowl. Add salt, oregano, chili pepper flakes, black pepper, and curry powder.
Mix thoroughly to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning.
This flavorful spice blend gives the chicken its rich taste and aroma. It’s balanced with heat, herbs, and warmth from the curry.
