Hearty Uruguayan Pan-Fried Chicken Curry

Assemble the ingredients: chicken, turmeric, cumin, bell pepper, coriander, cinnamon, lemon juice.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the chicken and cook until pan-fried.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Uruguayan flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Uruguayan accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
