SPICED COCONUT CHICKEN WITH CORIANDER & LIME

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a 30cm shallow casserole dish or high-sided frying pan. Fry the chicken thighs, skin-side down, just to get some colour on them (they will take on a deeper colour in the oven). Transfer them to another dish. Fry the onion in the pan until soft and pale gold. Add the garlic, spices and chillies. Cook for 2 mins more, then stir in the squash, cauliflower, rice, half the coriander, the lime zest, half the lime juice, the lime leaves and some seasoning. Put the chicken back in the pan, this time skin-side up, and season that as well.
• Heat the coconut milk and the chicken stock together until just below boiling point. Pour this around the chicken and put the pan in the oven, uncovered. Cook for 40 mins, or until the chicken is cooked through and the liquid has been absorbed by the rice. Squeeze over the remaining lime and scatter with the rest of the coriander. You could gently push the coriander into the rice, so it's not all on top. Serve immediately.

COCONUT LIME CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, chicken stock, lime juice, sugar, cornstarch, grated ginger and grated lemongrass until combined. Set aside until ready to use.
• Season the chicken with a few generous pinches of salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat in a large sauté pan. Add the chicken and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring and flipping occasionally, until cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a clean plate and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the sauté pan. Add the white parts of the scallions and garlic and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour in the sauce mixture and whisk to combine. Let the sauce continue cooking until it reaches a simmer.
• Add the broccoli to the sauce and gently toss for 1 minute until it is completely coated. Add in the chicken and toss until combined. Remove from heat.
• Taste and season the dish with extra salt, pepper, lime juice and/or sugar if needed.
• Serve warm over rice or noodles, garnished with lots of fresh cilantro and the dark parts of the green onions, plus a few sliced chiles if you would like to add some heat. Enjoy!

COCONUT LIME CHICKEN

Steps:

• Add your cooking fat of choice to a large skillet and heat on medium high heat.
• Unless your chicken breasts are already fairly thin slice them horizontally. This will give you very thin cutlets so they'll cook faster and more evenly.
• Add your chicken breasts to the hot pan. Liberally salt and pepper the side facing up. Saute until each side has some browning and chicken is cooked through or mostly cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate. Lower heat to medium.
• Add chicken stock, lime juice, coconut milk (stir it in the can so that you don't have any separation), minced garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper to the skillet. You'll have a bit of coconut milk remaining in your can. Set it aside because we'll drizzle some of that on top after everything is finished. Stir your sauce, scraping up any browned bits remaining in the pan from when you cooked your chicken.
• Add the chicken breasts back to the skillet with the sauce. Cover. Let simmer on medium to medium low for 5 minutes.
• Right before serving use a spoon to scrape up some of the remaining coconut milk from the can and drizzle it over your chicken. Sprinkle fresh chopped cilantro. You're done!
• Serve with vegetables or potatoes to take full advantage of the yummy coconut lime sauce!

Cook and stir until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, ginger, sugar, and salt; cook and stir for 5 minutes.
• Add chicken pieces, coconut milk, yogurt, and butter to the skillet. Bring to a boil, slightly reduce heat, and simmer until sauce reduces to desired thickness, about 30 minutes.
• Remove and discard bay leaves. Stir in lime juice and serve with lime wedges on the side.

COCONUT-LIME CURRIED CHICKEN

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.

COCONUT LIME CHICKEN AND SWEET POTATO CURRY

Steps:

• To a large skillet, add the oil, onion, and sauté over medium-high heat until the onion begins to soften about 5 minutes; stir intermittently.
• Add the chicken and cook to sear for about 2 minutes; flip often to ensure even searing.
• Add the garlic, ginger, coriander, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant; stir frequently.
• Add the sweet potatoes, coconut milk, Thai curry paste, salt, pepper, and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and allow mixture to gently boil for about 5 minutes. Remove the lid and allow mixture to boil, uncovered, for about 5 minutes or until sweet potatoes are done.
• Add the lime zest, lime juice, cilantro, stir to combine, and taste.
• Optionally or as desired, add brown sugar. I find the brown sugar balances the lime zest and juice and I enjoy some light sweetness but if you do not, omit it. Also, if desired, add additional curry paste, salt, pepper, etc. to taste.
• Serve immediately and optionally with rice.

COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN

COCONUT CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Trim the chicken thighs of excess fat and cut into 1/2- to 1-inch pieces; transfer to a bowl. Add the paprika, turmeric and salt, and use your hands to mix well. Let the chicken marinate at room temperature while you prepare the other ingredients, or cover and refrigerate overnight.
• In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high. Stir in the onions, lower the heat to medium-low and cook gently, stirring often to prevent scorching, until tender and translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook, stirring often, until most of the water from the onions has been cooked out and a glossy layer of oil has risen to the surface, about 5 minutes more.
• Add the marinated chicken and stir to release the spices into the onion. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a near boil. Let the coconut milk simmer briskly for about 4 minutes to thicken a bit. Lower the heat to medium-low and add the fish sauce. Stir in 1 1/2 cups water and bring to a near boil. The broth will thin out as the chicken starts to release its juices.
• Lower to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is tender, 30 to 45 minutes. Droplets of paprika-red oil will rise to the surface. Stir in the curry powder and cayenne, simmer briefly and remove from the heat.
• If time permits, let the curry sit for at least 20 minutes before serving. This allows the chicken to soak in more flavors as the curry cools. Bring to a simmer again right before serving and taste, adding more salt or fish sauce if desired. Serve over rice or noodles, with bowls of cilantro and lime wedges.
