Best Red Curry Steamed Chicken Or Fish Recipes

THAI RED CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick pan. Add the light scallions, garlic, and jalapeño and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Do not brown.
• Add the coconut milk, red curry paste, fish sauce, and brown sugar and whisk together. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer until thickened, a few minutes. Add the chicken and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally to promote even cooking, until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. (Do not let the sauce boil; the idea is to cook the chicken gently so that it's tender.) Stir in the lime juice, dark scallion greens, and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lime, if necessary. Serve with jasmine rice.
• Note: As always, take care when working with jalapeño peppers. If you touch the seeds or ribs, be sure to wash your hands well and avoid touching your eyes.
• Note: It's important to wait until you're ready to eat to cook the chicken. If you want to get a head start, prepare the sauce up until the point when the chicken is added. Take it off the heat and then poach the chicken right before serving. If the chicken sits in the hot curry sauce for too long before serving, it will overcook.

THAI RED CURRY WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large heavy based skillet over medium high heat.
• Add curry paste and Extras (if using jar paste) and cook for about 2 minutes so it "dries out" (See video)

• Add coconut milk, lime leaves, sugar and fish sauce. Stir, then add chicken.
• Spread chicken out, bring to simmer, then turn heat down to medium. Simmer for about 8- 10 minutes or until Sauce reduces, the chicken is cooked and the sauce is almost at the thickness you want.
• Do a taste test. Add more fish sauce (or even shrimp paste) to add more saltiness, sugar for sweetness.
• Add pumpkin and beans, stir. Cook for 3 minutes or until pumpkin is just cooked through and Sauce is thickened - see video for Sauce thickness.
• Remove from heat. Stir through a handful of Thai basil leaves.
