Absolutely delicious recipes adapted from Williams-Sonoma Chicken cookbook. This curry is fairly mild. If you prefer more heat and spice, add more curry powder or some red pepper.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 lb boneless chicken thighs
2 carrots, sliced
2 celery ribs, sliced
1/2 cup shallot, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons curry powder
3 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/2 cups medium grain rice, cooked according to package directions
2 teaspoons saffron
1/2 lb snow peas, trimmed
1/4 cup peanuts, ground
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil and cook all sides of the chicken pieces until lightly browned. Remove chicken from pot and season with salt and pepper.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of oil. Add carrots and celery and cook until softened.
  • Add shallots, ginger and garlic and cook until shallots soften.
  • Add curry powder, stir for 15 seconds and pour in the stock.
  • Return chicken to the pot. Add water to barely cover the chicken. Heat to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer uncovered until chicken is fully cooked (no pink). Internal chicken should be approximately 170°F.
  • Prepare rice according to package instructions. Half way through rice preparation, add the saffron.
  • Stir in peanut butter. Whisk coconut milk and cornstarch in a separate bowl. Add to pot and bring to a simmer.
  • In a sauté pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add snow peas and toss for one minute. Add 2 tablespoons of water and cook until crispy.
  • To serve, place chicken on top of rice and spoon with sauce. Place snow peas on top and garnish with the peanuts.

I had some trouble finding snow peas, so I used snap peas instead. The dish still turned out great.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut curry, but this dish was surprisingly good. The flavors were well-balanced and the chicken was very tender.
