Coconut Lime Chicken Curry image

I came up with this recipe, trying to copy my favorite from a local Indian restaurant. Adding the green chile salsa is what finally did the trick! Although they don't serve it this way at the restaurant, I stir-fried some vegetables and mixed them in before serving. Served with Cilantro Lime Rice recipe #157086.

Time 30m

Yield 2 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 chicken breasts, filets
1 (14 ounce) can light coconut milk
1/2 cup chicken broth
3 teaspoons green curry paste
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (to taste)
2 tablespoons lime juice
zest from one lime
2 tablespoons mild green chili salsa
3 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into 1-inch chunks and sautee in a little oil until surface is lightly brown (do not need to cook through). Remove chicken from pan. Stir in coconut milk, broth, curry paste, curry powder, and red pepper flakes, simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken back to pan and simmer about another 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thicker and chicken is fully cooked and tender.
  • Add lime juice, zest and chile salsa and stir until heated through.
  • Toss in stir-fried veggies if desired, and sprinkle with cilantro leaves. Serve with rice.
