Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely diced Spanish onion
2 cups long-grain rice
One 13- to 14-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup cashews
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon allspice berries
1 teaspoon whole cloves
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
2 teaspoons (or more if you like your curry spicier) hot Madras curry powder
3 tablespoons canola oil
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small Spanish onion, thinly sliced
2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons tomato paste
6 cups chicken stock
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 mango, chopped
1/2 cup dried coconut
2 green onions, green and pale green parts only, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
Honey, to taste

Steps:

  • For the coconut green onion rice: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat the grains in the butter. Add the coconut milk, salt, pepper and 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Stir once, cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until tender, about 16 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Spread the cashews on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until lightly golden brown, about 8 minutes. Let cool and finely chop in a food processor.
  • Remove the rice from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork and fold in the green onions and half of the cashews. Let sit 5 minutes more before serving.
  • For the chicken curry: Heat a small saute pan over low heat. Add the allspice, cloves and fennel and toast, shaking the pan occasionally, until you can smell the spices, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Transfer the spices to a coffee or spice grinder and finely grind. Combine the ground spices with the curry powder in a small bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and then with 1 tablespoon of the curry spices, tapping off any excess. Brown the chicken on all sides, about 8 minutes, and remove to a plate.
  • Add the onion to the Dutch oven and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the ginger and cook for 30 seconds, then add the remaining curry spices and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, coconut milk, salt and pepper and cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Add the cinnamon sticks and mango and cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, add the chicken and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a bowl and discard the cinnamon stick and mango pieces. Add the dried coconut and the remaining 1/2 cup cashews and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the heat, return the chicken to the pot and fold in the green onions, cilantro and mint and season with salt, pepper and honey, if needed.
  • To serve: Spoon the rice into bowls and ladle some chicken curry over.

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.

CURRY CHICKEN AND RICE



Curry Chicken and Rice image

I found this recipe and it sounded so good, but it served 100! I tweaked to serve 4 and use ingredients we like, and the results were great! I've got permission to make again, and I know I will. I love to use bone-in chicken thighs, but boneless breasts or thighs would work very well also.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Thigh Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup butter
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 (6 ounce) package long grain and wild rice mix
1 ½ cups water
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed golden mushroom soup
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon curry powder
4 bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
  • Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook the onion and celery until the onion is slightly tender, about 3 minutes; stir in mushrooms, and cook 1 more minute, stirring often. Mix in the package of rice mix and water; bring to a boil, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Mix the golden mushroom soup, sour cream, and curry powder together in a bowl. Stir about 1 1/2 cup of the soup mixture into the rice, reserving 1/2 cup of soup mixture for later. Spread the rice mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper, and arrange over the rice. Cover the chicken thighs with the reserved 1/2 cup of soup mixture. Sprinkle the casserole with Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken thighs are no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 50 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, not touching bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

ONE-PAN COCONUT CURRY RICE WITH CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES



One-Pan Coconut Curry Rice With Chicken and Vegetables image

Baking rice is a fail-safe way to a fluffy bowl of grains - and a quick route to a fragrant, hearty dinner. Red curry paste, coconut milk and peanut butter spice the chicken, rice and vegetables in this hands-off, one-pot recipe. Chunky peanut butter adds nuttiness, crunch and creaminess all at once. Feel free to swap out the carrots and broccoli for vegetables with similar cooking times, like sweet potato or snap peas. Drizzle your red curry rice with lime-spiked coconut milk for brightness just before digging in.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (13-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup red curry paste
3 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
2 tablespoons fish sauce
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
1 1/2 cups jasmine rice, rinsed
1 1/4 cups boiling water
1 head broccoli, thick stems discarded, florets separated (about 2 cups florets)
1 tablespoon lime juice

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch/3-quart baking pan, combine 1 cup of the coconut milk with the red curry paste, peanut butter, fish sauce and garlic; whisk until blended. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and carrots, then scatter the rice over everything. Add the boiling water, seal the pan tightly with foil, and bake until the rice is just tender, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove the foil from the pan, scatter the broccoli florets over the rice, season with salt and pepper, then reseal with foil and bake for another 5 minutes, until the broccoli has steamed. Remove from the oven and let sit for 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir the lime juice into the remaining coconut milk and season with salt and pepper. Fluff the rice with a fork and stir to mix. Serve with a drizzle of coconut sauce.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. This is especially important for the curry paste, as fresh herbs and spices will give it a much more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't Be Afraid to Adjust the Spiciness: The amount of chili peppers you use in the curry paste will determine how spicy the dish is. If you're not sure how much heat you can handle, start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Simmer the Curry for at Least 30 Minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer it, the better it will taste.
  • Serve with Coconut Rice: Coconut rice is the perfect accompaniment to chicken curry. It's creamy, flavorful, and helps to balance out the heat of the curry.

Conclusion:

This chicken curry with coconut rice is a delicious and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at your table. It's made with a variety of fresh ingredients and spices, and it's simmered until the chicken is tender and the sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve it with coconut rice and your favorite sides for a complete meal.
