Winnipeg-style chicken curry

Chicken curry is a culinary preparation with roots in Indian cuisine, which has found various forms of expression in different countries around the world, including Latin America. Although the original dish comes from the Indian subcontinent, its arrival in Latin America occurred through colonial and migratory influences, adapting to local ingredients and the tastes of each region. In different Latin American countries, this dish may be known by various names such as chicken curry, chicken with curry sauce, or simply chicken curry. Each variant preserves the essence of curry, an aromatic blend of spices that provides a unique and exotic flavor, while being combined with ingredients that reflect the local culinary identity.

In Winnipeg, a Canadian city with a notable Latin American community, this dish has been adopted and adapted, combining traditional techniques with local influences that enhance the flavor of the chicken and the creaminess of the sauce. This chicken curry is a reflection of the cultural fusion that enriches the contemporary cuisine of the region, uniting classic elements with modern touches that delight those who try it.
