CHEF JOHN'S PEANUT CURRY CHICKEN



Chef John's Peanut Curry Chicken image

I decided to not follow any specific recipe from any particular country or culture, but instead I made a simple composite of every peanut curry I've ever come across. I didn't use coconut milk, as I feel that's a little too sweet and rich for the peanut butter. I loved how this came out, and I can't imagine it being any richer.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 ½ pounds skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large yellow onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
3 ½ cups chicken broth, or to taste
¾ cup unsweetened natural peanut butter
½ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 pound zucchini, cut into chunks
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 green poblano pepper, diced
2 cups hot cooked rice
1 lime, for garnish
½ cup roasted peanuts, plus more for garnish
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Mix salt, coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.
  • Place chicken pieces in a separate bowl and add 1/2 of the spice blend. Mix together thoroughly to coat each surface with spice blend.
  • Heat oil over high heat in a heavy pot. Brown half of the chicken pieces on all sides. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the rest of the chicken.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add onion to pot. Saute until onions start to turn translucent and golden, 1 or 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook about 1 minute. Stir in remaining spice blend; cook and stir one minute. Pour in chicken broth. Add browned chicken along with accumulated juices. Stir in peanut butter and ketchup; add brown sugar. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to maintain a gentle, steady simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
  • Transfer zucchini, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, and peanuts to the pot. Stir to mix. Continue simmering until chicken and vegetables are fork tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Serve over rice with a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of peanuts and chopped cilantro.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg, beaten
2 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Kosher salt
1 cup thinly sliced snow peas
1 teaspoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
3 cups cold cooked long-grain white rice
2 tablespoons salted roasted peanuts, chopped
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds. Scoop onto a plate with a large, perforated spoon or spatula.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil, then add the snow peas, ginger, soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out evenly in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg, chicken and any juices to the skillet and cook, stirring and breaking up the egg to mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Add the peanuts and scallions and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 bone-in skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/4 cup curry powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
2 tablespoons minced garlic
Kosher salt
1 large white onion, sliced
2 Yukon gold potatoes, skin on, 1/2-inch diced
2 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups parboiled rice
2 cups coconut milk
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Drizzle the chicken breasts with some olive oil in a large bowl. Mix the curry powder, onion powder and cayenne together in a small bowl. Rub the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture. Add the minced garlic to the chicken, mixing so the garlic is distributed throughout the chicken. Marinate the chicken, spices and garlic together for 30 minutes.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 1/4 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken with kosher salt and sear it, in batches, until golden brown on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the sliced onions and diced potatoes and saute until the onions turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the chicken back in along with the chicken stock. Bring to a boil and lower to a simmer. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 45 minutes to an hour.
  • For the rice: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Then add the rice, coconut milk, granulated garlic, onion powder, thyme, bay leaves and 2 cups water. Cook, uncovered, until the rice begins to peek through and begins to absorb the moisture. Then, stir in the chickpeas. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Serve the chicken curry over the coconut peas and rice.
