CHICKEN CURRY



Chicken Curry image

Provided by Jennifer Segal, inspired by Cooks Illustrated

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1¼ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into ¼-inch strips
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2½ teaspoons curry powder, divided
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 cups low sodium chicken broth, best quality such as Swanson
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons sugar
1 cup frozen peas (no need to thaw)
¼ cup plain low fat (2%) or whole Greek yogurt (do not use nonfat)
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chicken evenly with ¾ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon curry powder.
  • Heat 1½ tablespoons of oil in a 12-inch skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned but still pink in spots, about 3 minutes. Transfer the partially cooked chicken to a clean bowl and set aside.
  • Add the remaining 1½ tablespoons oil to the skillet and set heat to medium. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic, ginger and remaining 1½ teaspoons curry powder and cook until fragrant, about a minute more.
  • Whisk the chicken broth and cornstarch together to dissolve the cornstarch, then add to the skillet along with the sugar and ⅛ teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until the sauce is nicely thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the peas and partially cooked chicken to the skillet, turn the heat down to low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, a few minutes. Off the heat, stir in the yogurt and cilantro; then season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve with basmati rice.

THAI CHICKEN CURRY



Thai Chicken Curry image

Easy Thai chicken curry with coconut milk. With simple ingredients and fast prep, this ONE PAN Thai curry recipe will become an instant fave.

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (or thighs, or a mix!)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
1 leek (thinly sliced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons red curry paste
1 can full-fat coconut milk ((14 ounces) (do not use light, or the sauce won't thicken properly))
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro (torn)
Prepared brown rice or sourdough for serving

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper.
  • Melt the coconut oil over medium-high heat in a large, ovenproof skillet. Add the chicken and sear on both sides until deeply golden brown. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the bell pepper, leek, garlic, and ginger, and stir to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, until slightly softened.
  • Stir in the curry paste. Cook for 5 additional minutes, stirring often. Slowly pour in the coconut milk while stirring to combine. Return the reserved chicken to the skillet.
  • Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 25 minutes. The chicken will be fully cooked when a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken registers 165 degrees F, and the juices run clear. (Note: Smaller chicken breasts may be done closer to the 15-minute mark.)
  • Top with cilantro. Serve with rice and fresh sourdough bread for mopping up the sauce if desired.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH CURRY



Chicken Breasts With Curry image

Here, standard weeknight chicken breasts are transformed into a dish that's fragrant and spicy. It's very easy to prepare: just make a quick stew of butter, onions, celery, garlic, apple, tomatoes and curry powder. Blend that together in a food processor until it forms a thick sauce, then combine with chicken breasts that have been lightly browned. Simmer until heated through, and enjoy with a snowy pile of rice. It beats takeout curry by a mile.

Categories     Dinner     Chicken     Rice     Lime Juice     Yogurt     Cardamom     Cucumber     Herb     Mint     Cilantro     Pistachio

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium onion, halved, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped, plus 1 garlic clove, smashed
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus 8 wedges for serving (3-4 limes total)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin, divided
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided, plus more
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 cup basmati rice
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup plain yogurt (optional)
1 English hothouse or large standard cucumber, peeled if desired, quartered lengthwise, cut crosswise into 1/2" pieces (about 2 cups)
1 cup (packed) herb leaves, such as mint, cilantro, and/or dill
1/3 cup shelled unsalted pistachios, coarsely chopped
Sumac (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Mix chicken, onion, turmeric, chopped garlic, lime juice, 1 Tbsp. oil, 2 tsp. cumin, 1 tsp. salt, and 3/4 tsp. pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp. oil over medium in a heavy medium saucepan. Add rice and smashed garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly toasted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Stir in cardamom, cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. salt, and remaining 1/4 tsp. cumin and 1/4 tsp. pepper. Add 1 3/4 cups water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and gently simmer, covered, until water is evaporated and rice is cooked, 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat. Let sit, covered, until ready to serve.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil over medium-high in a large skillet until very hot but not smoking. Add chicken mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in yogurt, if using, then adjust seasoning to taste. Cover to keep warm.
  • Gently toss cucumber, herbs, and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt in a small bowl.
  • Fluff rice with a fork and divide among bowls. Spoon chicken over. Top with cucumber salad, pistachios, and sumac, if using. Generously squeeze lime wedges over.

Tips:

  • For the tastiest results, use fresh lime juice and zest. If you don't have fresh limes on hand, you can substitute bottled lime juice, but the flavor will be less bright.
  • If you like your curry sauce spicy, add a teaspoon or two of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. You can also add a serrano or jalapeño pepper, minced.
  • To make the sauce ahead of time, simply whisk together the lime juice, curry powder, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. Store the sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, simply reheat the sauce over low heat.
  • Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Chicken Breasts with Lime Curry Sauce is a delicious and easy way to enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal. The chicken is cooked to perfection and the sauce is bursting with flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
