Number Of Ingredients 18

6 dried red Thai chiles
1 recipe Quick Curry Powder
1 recipe Lemongrass Paste
1 teaspoon coarse salt
Pinch of ground cloves
1 Idaho potato (about 8 ounces)
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4 breasts)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices
3 cloves garlic, sliced
2 carrots, peeled, cut in 1/4-inch-thick rounds
1/4 cup low-fat canned coconut milk
1/2 cup water
2 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock, skimmed of fat
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
Chopped peanuts (optional)
Crushed red-pepper flakes (optional)

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, boil 1 cup water; pour water over chiles in a small bowl. Let soak until softened, about 10 minutes. Drain; set aside. Combine chiles, curry powder, lemongrass paste, salt, and cloves. Puree until smooth, adding water if necessary.
  • Peel potato; cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Place in a bowl of cold water to prevent discoloring. Cut chicken into 1-inch cubes; place in a bowl. Sprinkle with cornstarch; toss to combine. Set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add curry paste; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion and garlic; cook until they start to soften, about 4 minutes. Add potato, carrots, coconut milk, water, chicken, stock, and cilantro. Cover; simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Uncover; simmer until slightly thickened and vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes more. Serve garnished with chopped peanuts and red pepper, if desired.

This dish is a great make-ahead meal. You can make the curry sauce ahead of time and then just cook the chicken when you're ready to serve. It's also a great dish to freeze. I often make a double batch and freeze half of it for later.

I love this recipe because it's so versatile. You can add any vegetables that you like. I often add carrots, potatoes, and bell peppers. You can also adjust the spice level to your liking.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this dish without the chicken. It was still delicious! The curry sauce is so flavorful that it doesn't need meat. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The curry sauce is so flavorful that it helps to mask the taste of the vegetables. My kids loved it and they didn't even realize they were eating vegetables.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some grilled chicken that I needed to use up, and this dish was the perfect solution. The curry sauce is so flavorful that it really elevates the chicken.

I'm not a huge fan of curry, but this dish was surprisingly delicious. The coconut milk and spices create a creamy, flavorful sauce that pairs perfectly with the chicken. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family.

This yellow curry chicken recipe is a keeper! The flavors are incredibly rich and complex, and the chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. My family loved it, and I will definitely be making it
