Time 2h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 medium lime, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon white pepper
3 medium scallions, sliced, white and green parts divided
6 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken cutlets, about 1/2-inch thick
fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine coconut milk, curry powder, lime juice and zest, honey, garlic, salt, coriander, white pepper, and white parts of scallions in a bowl. Stir briskly until well combined and pout into a 1-gallon resealable plastic bag. Add chicken cutlets, squeeze out most of the air, and seal. Gently move chicken cutlets inside the bag so they are fully coated with marinade. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove cutlets from the marinade, shaking off the excess. Discard marinade.
  • When the grill is ready, place cutlets on the grill and grill until lightly browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • To serve, place cutlets on a serving platter and sprinkle with reserved chopped scallion greens and chopped cilantro or parsley, if desired.

MARINATED CHICKEN BREAST WITH COCONUT CURRY SAUCE



Marinated Chicken Breast With Coconut Curry Sauce image

This is different from any other curry I've made in that the chicken is first marinated, and not cooked in the curry sauce itself. The contrasting yet complementary flavors of the marinade and sauce make for an unusual and attractive dish. This pairs especially well with the "Cardamon and Fennel Flavored Rice" recipe which I've posted as well. Preparation time includes 2 hour marinating time. Do not marinate this overnight as the lemon juice will break the fibers of the chicken down too much.
