Green Curry Chicken

Thai green curry chicken

This extraordinary recipe was adapted from Jane Rodmell's excellent book, Cottage Life's More Summer Weekends Cookbook (Cottage Life). Thai green curry paste turns chicken into a fiery treat--and you can make it as spicy as you like by varying the amount of paste. Rodmell created feverishly hot 'n' spicy chicken wings while we used breasts.

* Nutrition

1. In a small bowl, stir coconut milk with curry paste and salt. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag or bowl. Pour coconut mixture overtop. Seal tightly and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. When ready to barbecue, grease grill and preheat barbecue to medium-high. Remove chicken from marinade. Reserve excess marinade. Grill chicken, skin-side down, with lid closed for 6 minutes. Turn chicken and baste with marinade, then discard. Continue grilling for 20 to 25 more minutes, turning several times, until chicken feels springy when pressed. If chicken begins to burn, reduce heat to medium. To bake chicken, preheat oven to 400F (200C). Remove chicken from marinade, reserving excess, and bake skin-side up on a foil-lined tray until chicken feels springy when pressed, from 25 to 35 minutes. Baste with marinade halfway through, then discard. Remove chicken from oven, pour pan drippings overtop and serve.

* Hot wings

Prepare above recipe, but use 3 pounds (1.5 kg) chicken wings. Follow marinating instructions, then spread wings out on a baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. Bake in a preheated 400F (200C) oven for 40 minutes, turning wings over and basting halfway through. Or grease grill and preheat barbecue to medium-high. Grill with lid down for 15 minutes. Then turn wings, baste with marinade and grill 15 more minutes.

Thai recipe name pronunciation Green Chicken Curry it a favored dish from Central Thailand, and visitors to Thailand love it because it not too spicy and easy on the palet. A good meal for an evening dinner, here it is cooked with chicken legs but you can use chicken breast instead if preferred. I recommend corn fed chicken, it has much more flavour and a softer texture. There are lots of herbs & spices in the sauce, in old times these would be prepared by hand, luckily today thats not necessary, your local Asian supermarket stocks green curry sauce all ready to use. Note, you can eat the herbs too.
Originally from central Thailand, this is low to medium hot.

Coconut Curry Thai Chicken


Ingredients
Coconut Curry Sauce:

* 1(13.5-ounce) can light coconut milk
* 1 tablespoon Thai curry paste
* 2 tablespoons curry powder
* 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* Dash cayenne pepper
* Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Chicken:

* 8 ounces high-fiber whole wheat linguine, (recommended: DeCecco)
* Olive oil cooking spray
* 1 vidalia onion, chopped
* 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, fat removed, cut into small pieces
* Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

For the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients, whisk until thoroughly combined and set aside.

For the chicken: Cook the whole wheat linguine al dente according to box directions. Drain and rinse under cold water and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray so it does not stick and set aside.

Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and add onions. Cook until translucent and beginning to brown, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper and stir in curry powder. Saute chicken until lightly brown. Add the peanut butter and allow it to melt to coat the chicken.

Add the roasted red peppers, water chestnuts and scallions and season with salt and pepper as you like. Saute for a few minutes just to release flavor.

Pour the coconut curry sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir gently. Cook just until warmed through and thickened a bit, about 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, as needed. Garnish with chopped mint and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Chili garlic sauce and curry powder add the the kick, so feel free to adjust the quantities of these to suit your taste.
