Steps:
- Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high; swirl in oil. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in curry paste and cook 30 seconds. Stir in coconut milk, 1 cup water, and another 1/2 teaspoon salt. Squeeze tomatoes' juices into curry mixture, then drop in tomatoes and boil 3 minutes. Stir in couscous and peas. Scatter shrimp on top, in a single layer; return to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until shrimp are opaque and just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve, with basil scattered on top and drizzled with oil.
COCONUT CURRY SHRIMP
Steps:
- Heat the butter in a large skillet (I used non-stick) over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning them over halfway through, until fully cooked. Remove to a plate and set aside. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and stir to cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the curry powder over the onions and continue cooking the onions, stirring, for another couple of minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine. Add honey, salt, and lime juice, and allow the sauce to heat up until bubbling gently. Add shrimp into the sauce, tossing to coat, and allow it to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly thickened. Taste the sauce and add more salt, lime juice, or honey depending on your taste. Stir in the basil. (Add hot sauce if you want a little kick.)Serve shrimp and sauce over a bed of cooked basmati rice, garnishing with more basil. Delicious!
