National Curried Chicken Day | Curried Chicken for #SundaySupper
It’s January 12th. But it’s more than just National Curried Chicken Day and yet another day down in my National Food Holiday Challenge, but it’s Sunday Supper’s 2nd birthday. Welcome to our virtual birthday party!
In 2013 I focused mainly on local restaurants and so I wasn’t too much of a participant in Sunday Supper, but I continued to follow along every week and check in on what the regulars were doing and how the group was growing. It’s hard to believe that it’s only been two years, yet it’s hard to believe that it’s already been two years.
Today we are making any dish and sharing our favorite Sunday Supper memory. My favorite moment was sharing my spinach dip recipe. It’s a favorite at family gatherings, parties with friends, bridal and baby showers, and just to munch on in the middle of the afternoon at home. I was met with great feedback and encouragement, really saw what Sunday Supper was about and how supportive this group is, and it remains one of the posts with the most traffic at my site.
Today for National Curried Chicken Day and in celebration of Sunday Supper, I have Curried Chicken Skewers to share.
My favorite place for curry in Tampa is at Wat Mongkolratanaram (or as us Tampanians affectionately call it, Thai Temple). My husband and I go very often. He heads for the curry line while I stand in the noodle bowl line and then we meet back up and find a bench to enjoy our food at.
When I saw curried chicken on the food holiday calendar, I was so excited because I hadn’t made curry anything before and I had always wanted to try. Mike has also been growing a lot of herbs on our back patio and I was finally going to have a chance to use up some lemongrass.
A lot of spices and herbs were involved, but the prepping and cooking were easy and with the addition of some sticky rice, we had a new favorite in our house, just like that.
- Wooden skewers
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into chunks
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Juice from 1/2 a lemon
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
- 2 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 2 tbsp chopped lemongrass
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
- 1 tsp curry powder
- Pinch of black pepper
- Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine chicken pieces with all ingredients. Cover and let marinate for at least 1 hour. Remove chicken from bowl and create skewers.
- Grill chicken skewers on medium for 8-10 minutes, turning once in the middle of cooking.
- Serve with sticky rice.

What a flavorful offering today – seriously! I have never been to the Thai Temple, but I am dying to get there some time soon…I’ve heard such awesome things!
Thanks, Katie! I know Megan and Leslie have been wanting to go too! We should make a plan of it. 🙂

Another delightful chicken skewer recipe to add to my collection. Thanks for sharing, they look very appetizing.
Thanks, Helene! I loved making (and eating!) these. My husband did too and dug in right after he finished grilling them.

It’s so nice to see your smiling face around the family table again! Thank you for sharing this great recipe with the Sunday Supper Family.
Thanks, Isabel! It’s so wonderful to be back. I’ll be participating for the Big Game recipes too. 🙂
I love this and I totally need to go to Thai Temple next time I’m in town!
This is a plan for sure because I’m obsessed with this place and want everyone to come with me.

Your curried skewers look amazing!!! I’m so glad you’ve joined us in celebrating this second anniversary with your yummy chicken!
Thank you so much, Liz! I wouldn’t miss this second anniversary for the world! 🙂
Your skewer look succulent!
I have loved being a part of Sunday Supper, and cooking along with everyone each week.
Cheers to another great year!
Thank you, Dorothy! They were gone in no time. Right off the grill, I had about 2 seconds to take these pictures before we just had to devour them.

This looks heavenly! I love Indian food, but my husband does not which means it’s been WAY too long since I’ve had any. Pinned!
Haha, he doesn’t?? Maybe these will change his mind. 😉
What a great recipe! The mixture of sweet and spice sounds just heavenly!
Thank you, Katy! I really enjoyed this dish. It was gone in no time at all.

Oh. My. Word. These look delicious!!! I’m definitely going to have to make these. Happy “Birthday”! 🙂
When you do, please let me know what you think! 🙂
Now those are some nice looking skewers you have there! And what an interesting challenge you are doing with the National Food Day. So cool. Glad you joined in with us for the celebration too.
It’s been quite the challenge so far, mostly because of the time if takes to really accomplish it, but with each passing day, I get more and more confident. 🙂 Thank you for stopping by and happy “birthday”!
[…] It's National Curried Chicken Day and if that wasn't reason enough to celebrate, it's also #SundaySupper's 2nd birthday! Virtual birthday time! […]
Your skewers look so fantastic, love all the ingredients in them!!! Happy #SundaySupper!!!
Happy 2nd anniversary! Thanks, Tara!
These sound fantastic! Once we get the grill out again these are going to happen!
AS IT SHOULD! 😉
Hi Jennifer,
Curry is among my favorite flavors. It’s great to find your blog. I love the flavors that you chose to use for this recipe!
Welcome, and thanks! We love curry in my home as well.
I love curry spices and these look fantastic! Love the name of your blog!!
Thanks, Amy! My husband actually came up with the name, if you can believe that. Prior to this one, I had a name that nobody could pronounce, spell, or remember. Oops.

Ooh your chicken skewers look fantastic with all those lovely flavors in there!I love the gorgeous color you’ve got on those!Cheers for 2 years 🙂
They taste even better!
These look so good. I already pinned the recipe. Now I need to check out your spinach dip recipe.
I highly recommend the spinach dip. More than any other thing on my page thus far. It really is a favorite among everyone I know, and everyone is always so surprised when they see how easy it is to make.
Oh my! I love curry anything!
Me too, it’s so good!
Who knew there was a National Curried Chicken Day! You would think as a food blogger I would know about these holidays lol. Your Curried Chicken looks delish!
Well, not you know! 😉 Thanks for visiting!
Your skewers look divine, Jennifer! We’ve lived in at least three countries that claim chicken satay as a national dish and it’s one of our favorite meals. Yours rivals anything I’ve eaten in any of those. I can smell the spices grilling now!
Thank you so much, Stacy! Your comment means so much to me. 🙂
There really is a food holiday for everything! I recently really starting to love all the flavors in curry, this sounds delish!
There are soooo many! It’s crazy. Some of these I’ve never even heard of, but through this challenge I created for myself (oy vey…lol), I hope to be exposed to so much more!
Love that you made curry skewers! The pictures are gorgeous!
This was my first try at making curry, and I loved it! Thanks for visiting!
We love curry too, we have a curry every other week. These skewers look perfect.
Thank you, Laura! Curry can be such a bold flavor, but I love it.
These look incredible Jen!!! My mouth is watering. I am hoping I can go to the Wat on Sunday – as long as I can walk 🙂
Should we do this instead of lunch?? I mean, if you are feeling better.
I love, love, love curry and these skewers look fantastic. Saving this recipe to try on the grill this summer!
Enjoy!!! Thanks for visiting, Courtney!
