How much chicken does it take to make a curry?

There's no single answer to how much chicken you need for a curry! It depends on a few factors:

* Number of servings: Are you feeding 2 people or 10?

* Chicken piece size: Are you using boneless, skinless breasts, or bone-in thighs?

* Type of curry: Some curries are "chicken heavy" (like a butter chicken), while others are lighter on the meat and focus more on vegetables (like a chicken and potato curry).

Here's a general guideline:

* For a light curry with plenty of vegetables: 1 pound of chicken will be enough for 4-6 servings.

* For a medium-bodied curry with a balance of meat and vegetables: 1.5-2 pounds of chicken will serve 4-6 people.

* For a rich, meaty curry: 2-3 pounds of chicken will serve 4-6 people.

Pro Tip: It's always better to err on the side of more chicken. You can always use leftovers to make a delicious chicken salad or sandwich.
