Vietnamese Coconut Chicken Curry Food

VIETNAMESE COCONUT LEMONGRASS CHICKEN

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the half the onion and all the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until both begin to soften, about 7 minutes. Add the salt (if using), black pepper, sugar, chopped ginger and chicken. Cook over medium-high heat until the sugar melts and the onion mixture and chicken begin to brown, about 15 minutes.
• Add the remaining onion, the chili peppers, lemon grass, curry powder, soy sauce, fish sauce and coconut milk. Stir, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the chicken is no longer pink at the center, about 10 minutes. Remove the lid and simmer (adjusting the heat if necessary) until the sauce thickens and the chicken is tender, about 10 minutes more.
• Serve warm garnished with coconut shavings if desired. This dish tastes even better the next day!

VIETNAMESE CHICKEN CURRY (CA RI GA)

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken with salt, stock powder, sugar, black pepper, and yellow curry powder for at least 15 minutes. For larger cuts of chicken or drumsticks, marinate at least 2 hours or overnight in the fridge for best results.
• In a medium skillet or wok with lid, add vegetable oil and heat on medium-high. Add lemongrass, garlic, shallots, and lime/lemon/bay leaves. Saute for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
• Toss marinated chicken in the aromatic mixture until evenly coated. Add water. Cover with a lid and simmer on medium-low for 30 minutes. Stir chicken occasionally in the liquid as needed for even cooking. For larger cuts of chickens, cook for an additional 15 minutes.
• Add coconut milk, potatoes, carrots, and onions. Continue to cover the skillet/wok with a lid but leave a small opening to prevent the coconut milk from boiling over. Simmer on medium-low for 10 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are fork-tender. Remove lemon leaves and discard.
• Season to taste with salt, fish sauce, and sugar, if needed. Garnish with thinly sliced cilantro, green onions, or lemon/limes leaves. Serve over a bowl of steamed rice, rice noodles, or on the side of a warm baguette to soak up that amazing flavor.
