Heat half of the oil in a large saucepan and brown the diced chicken in it. Season the meat with salt and pepper and then take it out of the pot and keep it warm. Heat the rest of the oil. Roast the onion in it, add the paprika, chilli peppers, garlic and pumpkin and fry lightly. Add the curry powder and chicken and stir in the coconut milk. Let simmer for about 45 minutes.
If necessary, add water again and again and add salt.
