Method

  1. Saute the onion and carrot in oil for 8 minutes, then add stock and simmer until vegetables are tender.
  2. Stir in the curry roux blocks and simmer 10 minutes until the sauce is thick and glossy.
  3. Bread each chicken breast with flour, egg, and panko, pressing firmly for an even coating.
  4. Fry in 350 degrees F oil for 4 minutes per side until golden, slice, and serve over rice with curry.
Cooks notes. Recipes are tested in a US home kitchen. Substitute lemon for lime if you must, but the result will read brighter. Salt to taste -- our quantities skew toward kosher.
