Cut the chicken breast into larger chunks rather than small pieces. This prevents them from drying out too quickly while cooking in the curry sauce.
Hot take: Use chicken thighs! They stay juicier and more tender than chicken breasts.
From my experience, adding a little bit of coconut milk to your curry can keep the chicken breast tender. It not only helps with tenderness but also adds a nice creaminess to the curry.
Marinate the chicken breast in yogurt or buttermilk before adding it to the curry. The acids in the marinade help break down proteins, ensuring tender chicken.
