Katsu Curry [0000199]

Ingredients:

For the Breaded Cutlets (Chicken or Pork):

2 boneless chicken breasts or pork chops
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
1 large egg, beaten
1 cup gluten-free breadcrumbs
Cooking oil, for frying
For the Curry Sauce:

1 onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons oil (vegetable or olive oil)
2 tablespoons gluten-free curry powder
2 cups gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth
Salt and pepper, to taste
For Assembling:

Cooked white rice
Chopped fresh parsley or cilantro, for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

Start by preparing the breaded cutlets. If using chicken breasts or pork chops, place them between plastic wrap and gently pound them to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

Dredge each cutlet in the gluten-free all-purpose flour, then dip it into the beaten egg, and finally coat it with gluten-free breadcrumbs, pressing the breadcrumbs onto the cutlets to adhere.

In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. Carefully add the breaded cutlets and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the cooked cutlets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Once cooled slightly, slice the cutlets into strips.

In a separate pot or saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent.

Stir in the gluten-free curry powder and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

Pour in the gluten-free chicken or vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a blender to puree the curry sauce until smooth.

Season the curry sauce with salt and pepper to taste.

To serve, place a portion of cooked white rice on a plate. Lay the sliced breaded cutlets on top of the rice.

Ladle the smooth curry sauce over the cutlets and rice.

Optional: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for a pop of color and freshness.
