Coconut Chicken Curry Recipe

This is a recipe for a Cantonese-style chicken curry, in which marinated chicken thighs (paprika, turmeric, salt) are simmered in a pot with slowly cooked onions and garlic, coconut milk, fish sauce, and a little water. Madras curry powder and cayenne go in at the end, and it's served over rice or noodles with cilantro and lime after resting 20 minutes. The reader comments are much of the value: one cook found it bland as written and rebuilt it with extra garlic, ginger, red curry paste, lime zest, and stock. Others debated listing ingredient amounts inline with the steps and wanted onions measured by weight rather than size.
