Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

⅔ cup creamy, low-salt peanut butter
1 cup hot water, divided
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon red curry paste, or more to taste
¼ cup canola oil, divided
1 ½ pounds boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic, or more to taste
1 cup broccoli florets
1 large carrot, cut into thick strips
½ cup halved green beans
½ cup sliced zucchini
1 small onion, sliced
½ sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
3 scallions, sliced
½ cup unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts, divided
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, divided
1 lime, cut into wedges
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk peanut butter, 1/3 cup hot water, brown sugar, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and curry paste together in a bowl. Set peanut sauce aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a deep skillet or large wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken, ginger, and garlic. Saute, stirring constantly, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  • Pour 2/3 cup hot water into skillet. Add broccoli, carrot, and green beans. Cover and steam for 2 minutes. Remove vegetables from skillet and reserve steaming liquid in a bowl.
  • Add 1 tablespoon oil to skillet. Add zucchini, onion, and red pepper; stir-fry for 4 minutes. Return steamed broccoli, carrots, and green beans to the skillet. Add remaining oil, if needed. Continue cooking until vegetables are tender but still crisp, 3 to 5 minutes more. Reduce heat to medium-low.
  • Return cooked chicken to skillet. Add peanut sauce, scallions, 1/3 cup peanuts, and 1/3 cup cilantro. Stir thoroughly and heat through, 1 to 3 minutes. Add reserved steaming liquid to thin sauce, if necessary.
  • Garnish with lime wedge and remaining peanuts and cilantro. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes.

RED THAI CURRY CHICKEN STIR-FRY



Red Thai Curry Chicken Stir-Fry image

Not your typical soupy Thai curry. I "ad-libbed" this, just adding some red Thai curry paste to an otherwise typical stir-fry. It was hot, spicy and, for us, very yummy. I always use Mae Ploy brand curry paste - I find it the most authentic and flavoursome.

Categories     Curries

Time 27m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil (less if using non-stick pan)
450 g chicken thighs, cut into bite size pieces
2 bell peppers (any colour, sliced)
1 small red onion, chopped
1 red chili pepper, chopped
1 medium carrot, julienned
1/4 cup water
25 g Thai red curry paste
2 teaspoons Thai fish sauce (nahm plah)

Steps:

  • Heat your pan or pot, and spray lightly with olive oil.
  • Remove excess fat and skin from chicken (don't be overly diligent - a little fat is useful in the cooking!) and cut into bite-size pieces. Set aside.
  • Add chopped onion and hot chili pepper to the pre-heated pan; cook on high heat until onion is slightly soft (1 to 2 minutes).
  • Add carrot, cut into thick Julienne strips.
  • Add the curry paste, and stir-fry well.
  • Add water to help dissolve and mix the curry paste. The heat from the pan will evaporate the water quickly, but it still loosens up the paste.
  • Add the chicken and bell peppers (cut lengthwise).
  • Stir frequently; make sure all the paste is dissolved. The oil from the chicken should help this, too.
  • Add Thai fish sauce.
  • When the meat is thoroughly cooked, remove from heat.
  • Serve on a bed of Jasmin or Basmati rice, or other rice of your choice.
