Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons butter
1 pound roughly chopped cooked chicken thighs
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 apple - peeled, cored, and minced
2 large cloves garlic, grated
4 tablespoons yellow curry powder
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons zafrani garam masala
½ teaspoon ground ginger
3 ¾ cups light unsweetened coconut milk, divided
2 large carrots, peeled and roughly chopped
1 large russet potato, peeled and roughly chopped
4 ¾ cups chicken broth, divided
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons mushroom-flavored dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®), or to taste
salt to taste
2 cups uncooked short-grain white rice
½ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a pan over medium-low heat. Saute onion until soft, translucent, and slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add apple, garlic, curry powder, tomato paste, flour, garam masala, and ginger. Stir while allowing spices to bloom and flour to cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 2 cups coconut milk, carrots, and potato; bring to a boil. Add 4 cups broth, brown sugar, soy sauce, and Sriracha; return to a boil.
  • Toss chicken into the pan and cover. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the lid and check thickness; if it appears thin, leave lid off and allow to simmer until reduced to your liking, about 15 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
  • Meanwhile, place rice into a bowl or pot and fill with water, a few inches above the rice. Shake from side to side with a flat hand and separated fingers while moving up and down. Pour out water and repeat process until water runs clear, about 5 times. Drain in a fine-mesh strainer.
  • Combine drained rice, remaining coconut milk , remaining chicken broth, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in your pot and stir. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat to a light simmer, and allow to cook until rice is fluffy and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, cover the lid with a towel, and let rest for 20 minutes. Serve with chicken mixture.

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.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (13-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup red curry paste
3 tablespoons crunchy peanut butter
2 tablespoons fish sauce
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced (about 1 cup)

1 head broccoli, thick stems discarded, florets separated (about 2 cups florets)
1 tablespoon lime juice

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch/3-quart baking pan, combine 1 cup of the coconut milk with the red curry paste, peanut butter, fish sauce and garlic; whisk until blended.

STICKY COCONUT CHICKEN AND RICE



Sticky Coconut Chicken and Rice image

This comforting one-pot chicken dish features fragrant coconut rice infused with aromatic ginger, garlic and scallion, and studded with toasty cashews. The cashews soften as the rice steams, adding subtle nuttiness to the dish. Chicken thighs absorb the coconut milk as they cook, which keeps the meat tender and juicy. Fresh chopped cilantro brightens the dish, while hot sauce adds nice heat and tang to balance the creamy, rich and slightly sweet rice.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, each thigh cut into 2 equal-size pieces
1/4 cup neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 1/2 cups short-grain white rice, rinsed until water runs clear
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded and chopped (½-inch pieces)

Arrange chicken on top, add any accumulated juices from the plate and bring to a boil over high.

Curry Sticky Rice Stuffed With Short Rib By Chef JJ Johnson Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: sticky rice, warm water, unsweetened coconut milk, sugar, curry powder, lime zest, kosher salt, boneless short ribs, kosher salt, black pepper, canola oil, jalepeno, bay leaves, fresh thyme, fresh parsley, dry red wine, beef stock, orange juice, cinnamon sticks, sesame seeds, lime wedge

Provided by Kiano Moju

Categories     Lunch

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 cups sticky rice, uncooked
warm water, for soaking
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk, canned
¼ cup sugar
1 ½ tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon lime zest, about 2 limes
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 lb boneless short ribs, cut into 3 inch (7 1/2 cm) pieces
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 jalepeno, seeded and roughly chopped
2 bay leaves
2 sprigs fresh thyme
5 sprigs fresh parsley
⅔ cup dry red wine
1 ½ cups beef stock
⅓ cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
2 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
lime wedge, for serving

Steps:

  • Add the rice to a large nonreactive bowl that holds at least double the volume of the rice. Cover the rice by 2-3 inches (5- 7 ½ cm) with warm water and soak for 2 hours.
  • Drain the rice and transfer to a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth. Set the steamer basket over a large pot with several inches of boiling water.
  • Cover and steam the rice for 30 minutes, or until shiny and tender. Be careful that the pot doesn't run dry during steaming; add more water if necessary.
  • While the rice steams, pour the coconut milk into a large heavy pot over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Make sure it does not boil.
  • Once the coconut milk is simmering, add the sugar, curry powder, lime zest, and salt, and whisk to completely dissolve the sugar and salt in the hot coconut milk.
  • When the sticky rice is done, turn it out into a large dish and use a wooden spoon to mix in the coconut milk mixture. Let stand, covered, for 30 minutes-1 hour to allow the flavors to melt.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Season the short ribs all over with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Working in batches, sear the short ribs on all sides until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Remove from the pot and set aside.
  • To the Dutch oven, add the jalapeño, bay leaves, thyme, and parsley, and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
  • Deglaze the pan with the red wine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, then add the beef stock and orange juice.
  • Return the short ribs back to the pan. Cover and braise in the oven for 3 hours, until the meat pulls apart easily with a fork. Set aside to cool slightly, then shred the short ribs with 2 forks.
  • Using a 3-inch square mold, add a scoop of rice to the mold and spread in an even layer. Scoop in a layer of short rib, then cover with more rice. Garnish with sesame seeds. Unmold the rice and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
  • Serve with lime wedges.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh coconut milk. Fresh coconut milk will give your curry a richer, more authentic flavor. If you can't find fresh coconut milk, canned coconut milk is a good substitute.
  • Don't be afraid to add some heat. This curry is fairly mild, but you can easily add more heat by adding some chili peppers or red pepper flakes. You can also use a hotter curry paste, if you prefer.
  • Be patient when cooking the curry. The curry needs to simmer for at least 30 minutes to develop its full flavor. Don't rush the process, or the curry will be bland.
  • Serve the curry with your favorite sides. This curry goes well with steamed rice, naan bread, or roti. You can also serve it with a side of yogurt or chutney.

Conclusion:

This coconut curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken or tofu. With its rich, creamy sauce and tender chicken, this curry is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
