Thai Yellow Curry Chicken Recipes

THAI YELLOW CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Gently melt butter in a large skillet over low heat. Add curry paste; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in coconut milk and bring to a simmer.
• Heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Saute until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add chicken and chicken base and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer chicken mixture into the coconut-curry sauce. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine water and rice in a saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until all water has been absorbed, about 9 minutes. Turn off the heat and let rice sit, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork.
• Serve chicken curry over rice. Garnish with cashews just before serving.

YELLOW THAI CHICKEN COCONUT 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 for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is done; flip and stir often to ensure even cooking.
• Add the garlic, turmeric, ginger, coriander, and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant; stir frequently.
• Add the curry paste, coconut milk, carrots, and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium, and allow mixture to gently boil for about 5 minutes, or until liquid volume has reduced as much as desired and thickens slightly.
• Add the spinach, pepper, and stir until the spinach has wilted.
• Taste the curry and add the optional but recommended lime juice (brightens the flavor of the dish), cilantro, optional light brown sugar (balances the heat), optional salt (I did not add any because the curry paste has salt in it), and add extra of any of the spices already used or more curry paste, if desired and to taste.

AUTHENTIC THAI YELLOW CURRY WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the curry paste to the oil, and stir-fry until fragrant, about two minutes. Take care to scrape any bits that stick to the bottom of the pot with your spoon.
• Spoon in the coconut solids from the top of the can first, and allow it to fry with the paste for a minute. Stir in the rest of the coconut milk (or coconut cream) and 1 cup of chicken stock. If you would like the curry to be thinner/soupier, then you can add 1 more cup of stock. Bring to a low boil, then turn the stove down to a simmer.
• Stir in the potatoes. When the potatoes are about halfway cooked through, stir in the carrots and onions.
• Once the carrots are almost fork-tender, add in the thinly sliced chicken and cook for two or three minutes, until the chicken is just cooked through and tender. Pay attention not to overcook the chicken, this process doesn't take long.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the fish sauce, salt, and sugar, adjusting each to suit your tastes.
• Serve the curry in bowls, over jasmine rice. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges.
