COCONUT-LIME SHRIMP

Coconut-Lime Shrimp image

You can make this gingery, lightly sweet shrimp stew as tangy and spicy as you like by adjusting the amounts of chile and lime juice. Using full-fat coconut milk gives you the richest and most flavorful dish. But light coconut milk will also work, resulting in something brothier and more souplike. Be sure not to overcook the shrimp. As soon as they turn pink, they're done.

COCONUT-LIME CURRIED CHICKEN

Coconut-Lime Curried Chicken image

As an up-and-coming chef, I did several stints cooking on cruise ships in the Caribbean. I loved getting out at each port and tasting the local food. That's when I discovered Trinidadian curry, which I've re-created here, adding touches of Asia with the ginger and lime. You can serve it with noodles, couscous, quinoa, rice -- whatever you've got on hand that is quick and delicious -- but my choice would be roti (Indian flatbread).

Ingredients

2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more as needed
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons red curry paste (see Cook's Note)
4 tablespoons cilantro leaves and tender stems, roughly chopped
1 medium yellow onion, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
One 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and minced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 limes halved lengthwise, plus grated zest and juice of 1 lime
2 sprigs thyme, leaves stripped
One 15-ounce can coconut milk
1/4 cup water
2 cups cooked rice (optional)
4 fresh mint leaves, chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon raisins
2 tablespoons toasted unsweetened coconut flakes

Steps:

Put the 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet and turn the heat to medium.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on each side. Add 2 tablespoons of the curry paste and half of the cilantro. Massage the chicken, rubbing in the curry paste and cilantro.
When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken in one layer and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate. The chicken will not be cooked through at this point.
Add the onion, garlic, ginger and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Season with salt and pepper. Add a drizzle of oil if the skillet looks dry and stir together. Clear some space in the skillet and add 2 of the lime halves cut-side down. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons curry paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and the garlic is slightly golden, about 5 minutes. During this time, leave the limes cut side down. Return the chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle with most of the lime zest and reserve the rest for garnish. Add the thyme leaves and bring to a simmer. Remove the lime halves.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir in the coconut milk, water and half of the lime juice. Bring to a simmer. Add the rice, if using, and stir together. Add half of the remaining chopped herbs and all of the remaining lime juice. Flip the chicken to coat, add the raisins and continue to simmer until the sauce is slightly thickened and the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the chopped herbs and squeeze in more lime juice, as desired.
Garnish with the coconut and reserved lime zest and serve.

Tips:

Choose large shrimp for this recipe, as they will hold up better to the cooking process.
Be sure to devein the shrimp before cooking.
Use a light hand when coating the shrimp in the coconut mixture, as too much coating can make them soggy.
Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque and pink, about 2-3 minutes per side.
The curried tomato-lime coulis can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Garnish the shrimp with fresh cilantro or parsley before serving.

Conclusion:

This coconut shrimp with curried tomato-lime and roasted garlic coulis is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The shrimp are crispy and flavorful, and the coulis is rich and creamy with a hint of spice. This dish is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
