COCONUT ~ CURRIED ~ SHRIMP OVER BASMATI RICE

Steps:

• 1. In a large skillet,( I used my 9 inch iron skillet ) melt 1 tablespoon of butter, over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp. Cook just for 2 - 3 minutes, turning once and until pink. Don't overcook...they won't take long. Remove from pan, and set aside.
• 2. In the same skillet, melt remaining butter and add the onion, peppers and garlic. Cook until tender crisp.
• 3. Ina small dish, add the flour, curry, salt and pepper. Stir together and whisk into the vegetables. Stir constantly and cook for 1 minutes.
• 4. Whisk in the coconut milk, heavy cream and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning if need be.
• 5. Once thick, add the shrimp back to the pan and cook only long enough to heat the shrimp through.
• 6. To serve, make a bed of rice on a plate or bowl and ladle out broth and top with shrimp. Enjoy! It's delicious!
