Ingredients

4 servings

For the rice

2 cups jasmine rice
3 cups water

For the katsu

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each), pounded to ½-inch thickness
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
½ cup neutral oil (such as canola oil or vegetable oil), for frying

For the curry sauce

2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into ½-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 tbsp curry powder
2 ½ cups chicken broth
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp honey
1 medium apple, peeled and grated

Instructions

1
Combine the jasmine rice and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover tightly, and cook for 15 minutes, until all the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let steam, covered, for 5 minutes.
2
While the rice cooks, make the curry sauce. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 6–7 minutes.
