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 RED CURRY CHICKEN



Thai Red Curry Chicken image

This fragrant Thai chicken curry is a one-pan dish that comes together in just 30 minutes.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small bunch scallions, thinly sliced, light and dark green parts divided
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced (see note)
1 (14-oz) can coconut milk (unsweetened)
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2½ tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
1½ pounds chicken tenderloins, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon lime juice, from 1 lime
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat the oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick pan. Add the light scallions, garlic, and jalapeño and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not brown.
  • Add the coconut milk, red curry paste, fish sauce, and brown sugar and whisk together. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer until thickened, a few minutes. Add the chicken and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally to promote even cooking, until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. (Do not let the sauce boil; the idea is to cook the chicken gently so that it's tender.) Stir in the lime juice, dark scallion greens, and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lime, if necessary. Serve with jasmine rice.
  • Note: As always, take care when working with jalapeño peppers. If you touch the seeds or ribs, be sure to wash your hands well and avoid touching your eyes.
  • Note: It's important to wait until you're ready to eat to cook the chicken. If you want to get a head start, prepare the sauce up until the point when the chicken is added. Take it off the heat and then poach the chicken right before serving. If the chicken sits in the hot curry sauce for too long before serving, it will overcook.

Provided by Culinary Envy

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian

Time 29m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 (16 ounce) package skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into small cubes
1 (14 ounce) can cream of coconut (such as Trader Joe's® Extra Thick and Rich)
1 (11 ounce) bottle red Thai curry sauce (such as Trader Joe's®)
½ (16 ounce) package dried rice stick vermicelli noodles

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet on high heat. Add chicken cubes; cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium-high and add coconut cream and curry sauce. Cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh chicken, vegetables, and herbs will give your curry the best flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken and vegetables will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly: Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding the vegetables.
  • Use a good quality curry paste: A good quality curry paste will make a big difference in the flavor of your curry.
  • Adjust the heat to your liking: If you like your curry spicy, add more chili peppers. If you prefer a milder curry, use fewer chili peppers.
  • Serve with rice or naan bread: Curry is traditionally served with rice or naan bread.
