Coconut Lime Chicken Curry Food

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.

SPICY CHICKEN COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the Ghee in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions, ginger, and garlic and cook slowly until the onions are very soft, about 15 minutes. Add the tomato paste, Curry Powder, cinnamon stick, and chiles and give it a good stir; season with salt and pepper. Pour in the coconut milk and chicken stock and bring it back to a simmer; cook until the sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Add the tomatoes, chicken, cilantro, and half the lemon juice; continue to simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Garnish with cilantro and mint leaves.
• Put the butter in a heavy saucepan over medium-low heat. Melt the butter slowly and make sure it does not sizzle or brown. Increase the heat and bring the butter to a boil. When the surface is covered with foam, stir gently and reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting. Gently simmer, uncovered, and undisturbed for 45 minutes, until the milk solids in the bottom of the pan have turned golden brown and the butter on top is transparent. Strain the ghee through a sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth. The ghee should be perfectly clear and smell nutty; pour into a glass jar and seal tightly.
• Toast the coriander, cumin, cardamom, peppercorns, fennel, mustard, cloves, and the chiles in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat just until they smell fragrant, about 2 minutes. In a clean coffee grinder or spice mill, grind the toasted spices together to a fine powder. Add the turmeric and give it another quick buzz to combine. Use the curry powder immediately, or store in a sealed jar for up to 1 month.

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.

Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the oils in the spices to activate. Pour olive oil into the skillet and add onion. 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-CRUSTED LIME CHICKEN

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the chicken in a large bowl with the lime zest and juice, curry powder, chilli powder, if using, and seasoning. Mix well, then toss in the coconut. Place chicken on a rack sitting in a roasting tin, drizzle with the oil, then bake for 25 mins until cooked through and tender. Serve with mango chutney, lime wedges for squeezing over and rice, if you like.

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.
