Blend first six ingredients and a quarter cup cilantro in blender or food processor until it becomes a paste. Stop often to scrape down sides of the bowl. Rub paste over chicken.
Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown on all sides, about six minutes. Add coconut milk, broth, and turmeric. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until chicken is cooked through, turning once, about 30 minutes.
