Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap, and pound to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Set up a breading station: Fill one bowl with gluten-free flour, a second bowl with beaten eggs, and a third with gluten-free panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the eggs and then coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add vegetable oil. When hot, fry the breaded chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a separate large saucepan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add onion and carrot, sautΓ©ing for 5 minutes until softened.
Add garlic, potato, and curry powder, stir to coat the vegetables well. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
Stir in the coconut milk, gluten-free soy sauce, and honey. Simmer for another 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Slice the cooked chicken katsu into strips.
To serve, place a portion of cooked rice on a plate, top with sliced chicken katsu, and ladle over the curry sauce.
Garnish with chopped spring onions and enjoy!
