Thai coconut curried chicken and shrimp.
Norway was amazing and after eating delicious seafood for a week, I was longing for a curry.
Here's my recipe for Thai coconut curry with chicken, shrimp and vegetables. This dish is also delicious as a vegetarian dish, simply omit the chicken and shrimp and use diced extra firm tofu.
1 Tbs. peanut oil
salt and pepper
2 cubes each- frozen garlic and ginger
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 chopped onion
1 C. baby carrots, sliced on the diagonal
1 peeled potato, cubed
1/2 C. red bell pepper cut into slices
1/2 C. button mushrooms, cut in half
1 12oz. can light coconut milk
3 Tbs. mild curry paste
1/2 lb. uncooked shrimp
1 C. green beans, cut in half
juice from 1/2 lime
1/2 C. chopped fresh cilantro
Heat oil in a large pan with a lid on medium high heat. Season each side of chicken with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add onions, garlic and ginger to pan and saute for 1 minute. Add chicken and brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Add carrots, potato, bell pepper, mushrooms, coconut milk and curry paste. Stir to combine, cover and reduce heat to medium low. Cook for 15 minutes. Add green beans, shrimp and lime juice, cover and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve over rice.
