Categories     Soup/Stew     Chicken

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 whole chicken legs (about 3 pounds total)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 14.5-oz can light coconut milk
12-oz canned reduced-sodium chicken broth
1-2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste
1 cup jasmine rice
2 red bell peppers (ribs and seeds removed), cut into 1-inch pieces
8 ounces green beans (stem ends removed), cut into 1-inch lengths
1/2 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • 1. In a 5-quart Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Working in two batches, cook chicken until browned, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer to a plate (chicken will cook more in step 2). 2. To pot, add coconut milk, broth, 1/2 cup water, and curry paste; bring to a boil, and stir in rice. Add chicken (with any juices), arranging pieces in a single layer. Cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, without stirring, until rice is almost tender, 15 minutes. 3. Scatter bell peppers and green beans on top of chicken mixture; cover, and cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality coconut milk for the best flavor. A thick, creamy coconut milk will give the casserole a rich, decadent flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the amount of spice in the dish to your liking. If you prefer a milder flavor, use less cayenne pepper or omit it altogether. If you like things spicy, add more cayenne pepper or even a pinch of chili powder.
  • If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can use a large skillet or braising pan. Just be sure that it has a lid and is oven-safe.
  • Serve the casserole over rice or noodles for a complete meal. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables or salad.

Conclusion:

Spicy coconut chicken casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is flavorful, creamy, and has just the right amount of spice. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
