Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely diced Spanish onion
2 cups long-grain rice
One 13- to 14-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup cashews
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon allspice berries
1 teaspoon whole cloves
1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds
2 teaspoons (or more if you like your curry spicier) hot Madras curry powder
3 tablespoons canola oil
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small Spanish onion, thinly sliced
2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons tomato paste
6 cups chicken stock
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 mango, chopped
1/2 cup dried coconut
2 green onions, green and pale green parts only, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
Honey, to taste

Steps:

  • For the coconut green onion rice: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat the grains in the butter. Add the coconut milk, salt, pepper and 1 cup of water and bring to a boil. Stir once, cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until tender, about 16 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Spread the cashews on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until lightly golden brown, about 8 minutes. Let cool and finely chop in a food processor.
  • Remove the rice from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes. Remove the lid, fluff the rice with a fork and fold in the green onions and half of the cashews. Let sit 5 minutes more before serving.
  • For the chicken curry: Heat a small saute pan over low heat. Add the allspice, cloves and fennel and toast, shaking the pan occasionally, until you can smell the spices, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Transfer the spices to a coffee or spice grinder and finely grind. Combine the ground spices with the curry powder in a small bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and then with 1 tablespoon of the curry spices, tapping off any excess. Brown the chicken on all sides, about 8 minutes, and remove to a plate.
  • Add the onion to the Dutch oven and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the ginger and cook for 30 seconds, then add the remaining curry spices and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add the chicken stock, coconut milk, salt and pepper and cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Add the cinnamon sticks and mango and cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, add the chicken and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a bowl and discard the cinnamon stick and mango pieces. Add the dried coconut and the remaining 1/2 cup cashews and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the heat, return the chicken to the pot and fold in the green onions, cilantro and mint and season with salt, pepper and honey, if needed.
  • To serve: Spoon the rice into bowls and ladle some chicken curry over.

BAKED CURRY CHICKEN WITH A SIDE OF COCONUT RICE



Baked Curry Chicken With a Side of Coconut Rice image

These two recipes are from two cookbooks that I own (the curry chicken from "Cooking Jewish" by Judy Bart Kancigor, and the coconut rice from "The Joy of Cooking" cookbook), except that I made a few substitutions, and I have figured out how our family likes these. I usually open a can or two of green beans, and I just heat those up to serve with this, but any veggie would be nice.

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6-8 ounces each)
1/4 cup butter (4 Tablespoons)
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons curry powder (mild or hot, whatever you prefer)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk (I have used fat free regular milk instead at times, and it worked fine-just not coconut-y)
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup jasmine rice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sweetened coconut, shredded and toasted

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x9 baking pan with cooking spray, and set aside. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Arrange the chicken breasts in a single layer in the baking pan.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the honey, mustard, dry mustard, garlic, lemon juice, curry powder, and salt, stirring until smooth.
  • Pour about 2/3 of the sauce over the chicken. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake for 10 minutes,.
  • Then, uncover and baste with sauce. Continue baking, uncovered, basting occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Once you put the chicken in the oven, start the rice.
  • Combine the coconut milk, water, rice, ginger, and salt in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil.
  • Once it boils, reduce the heat to a very low heat (like simmer) until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
  • A few minutes before serving the rice, stir in the toasted coconut.

CURRY CHICKEN WITH COCONUT PEAS AND RICE



Curry Chicken with Coconut Peas and Rice image

Provided by Tregaye Fraser

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 bone-in skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1/4 cup curry powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
2 tablespoons minced garlic
Kosher salt
1 large white onion, sliced
2 Yukon gold potatoes, skin on, 1/2-inch diced
2 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cups parboiled rice
2 cups coconut milk
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Drizzle the chicken breasts with some olive oil in a large bowl. Mix the curry powder, onion powder and cayenne together in a small bowl. Rub the chicken breasts with the seasoning mixture. Add the minced garlic to the chicken, mixing so the garlic is distributed throughout the chicken. Marinate the chicken, spices and garlic together for 30 minutes.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add 1/4 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken with kosher salt and sear it, in batches, until golden brown on each side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the sliced onions and diced potatoes and saute until the onions turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Then add the chicken back in along with the chicken stock. Bring to a boil and lower to a simmer. Cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 45 minutes to an hour.
  • For the rice: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Then add the rice, coconut milk, granulated garlic, onion powder, thyme, bay leaves and 2 cups water. Cook, uncovered, until the rice begins to peek through and begins to absorb the moisture. Then, stir in the chickpeas. Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt.
  • Serve the chicken curry over the coconut peas and rice.

BAKED CHICKEN CURRY



Baked Chicken Curry image

Flavorful and moist baked chicken breasts with Indian spices like curry powder. Great with brown rice. Serve over rice (brown basmati rice is quite tasty, but white or basmati would work well also). Doubling the recipe for the sauce ensures you'll have a ton to go over the rice.

ONE-PAN COCONUT CURRY RICE WITH CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES



One-Pan Coconut Curry Rice With Chicken and Vegetables image

Baking rice is a fail-safe way to a fluffy bowl of grains - and a quick route to a fragrant, hearty dinner. Red curry paste, coconut milk and peanut butter spice the chicken, rice and vegetables in this hands-off, one-pot recipe. Chunky peanut butter adds nuttiness, crunch and creaminess all at once. Feel free to swap out the carrots and broccoli for vegetables with similar cooking times, like sweet potato or snap peas. Drizzle your red curry rice with lime-spiked coconut milk for brightness just before digging in.

  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Ensure there's enough space between the chicken pieces to promote even browning and prevent steaming.
  • Roast the chicken at a high temperature: Start by roasting the chicken at a high temperature to create a crispy outer layer, then reduce the heat to allow the chicken to cook thoroughly.
