The color of the sauce comes from ingredients such as cilantro, mint, green chilies, and other green herbs. Here's a general recipe for Green Chicken curry, which can vary across different cuisines:

Ingredients:

For Green Curry Paste:

    1 cup fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves

    1/2 cup fresh mint leaves

    2-3 green chilies (adjust based on spice preference)

    1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

    1 small onion, chopped

    1 teaspoon cumin powder

    1 teaspoon coriander powder

    Juice of one lime or lemon

    Salt to taste

    Water (as needed to blend)

For Green Chicken Curry:

    500g boneless chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces

    2 tablespoons cooking oil

    1 onion, thinly sliced

    1 cup bell peppers, thinly sliced (optional)

    1 cup coconut milk

    1 cup chicken broth or water

    Salt to taste

    Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare Green Curry Paste:

     In a blender or food processor, combine cilantro, mint, green chilies, ginger-garlic paste, chopped         onion, cumin powder, coriander powder, lime or lemon juice, and salt.

      Add water as needed to blend into a smooth paste. Set aside.

2. Cook the Chicken:

       In a large pan or wok, heat oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and sauté until they become           translucent.

       Add the chicken pieces and

       Cook until they are browned on all sides. Once the chicken is browned, add the green curry paste           and cook for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

3. Add Vegetables and Coconut Milk:

       If using bell peppers, add them to the pan and sauté for a couple of minutes.

        Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth (or water). Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer.         Season with salt to taste. Allow the chicken and vegetables to simmer until the chicken is fully                cooked and tender.

4. Garnish and Serve:

        Once the chicken is cooked, garnish the green chicken curry with fresh cilantro leaves.

        Serve the Green Chicken Curry hot over steamed rice or with naan or roti.
