Chicken And Pumpkin Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a soup pot over high heat. Add chicken to hot oil; cook, stirring occasionally until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in 1/2 of the red onion and brown sugar. Cook until onions have softened and sugar starts to caramelize on the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes. Stir in black pepper, cumin, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Toss in ginger and garlic; stir until sizzling, about 1 minute.
• Add 4 cups chicken broth and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pot. Bring to a boil. Add coconut milk and curry paste. Add cayenne pepper and bay leaf. Stir in fish sauce. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
• Carefully cut squash with a large knife on a cutting board. Remove seeds and peel and discard skin. Cut flesh into bite-sized pieces. You should have about 1 1/2 pounds squash.
• Add squash to soup and salt to taste. Add remaining chicken broth to cover squash. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until pumpkin is just barely tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in remaining red onion, bell pepper, and green onions; cook for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, and stir in 1/2 cup cilantro and 1/4 cup basil. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Ladle into bowls and garnish with more cilantro, basil, green onions, and serrano chiles. Squeeze lime juice into each bowl.

Steps:

• Heat a wok to hot.
• Stir-fry the sesame seeds for 1-2 minutes or until lightly toasted.
• Remove.
• Swirl the oil in the wok to coat the sides.
• Stir-fry the onion for 3 minutes or until soft.
• Add the garlic, ginger, spices and chilli and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant.
• Add the chicken strips and stir fry for a couple of minutes or until all the meat has changed colour.
• Add the pumpkin and capsicum and stir fry for 2 minutes more.
• Add the liquids and essence and bring to the boil.
• Reduce the heat and simmer loosely covered for 10 minutes.
• Uncover and simmer for a further 5-10 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender and the liquid has thickened.
• Season with salt and scatter with the toasted sesame seeds and the coriander leaves.

Steps:

• Cook rice according to package directions., Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with 1 teaspoon curry powder and pepper. In a large skillet, saute chicken in oil for 5-6 minutes or until no longer pink. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer., Stir in the pumpkin, broth, raisins, apple butter, five-spice powder and remaining curry powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5-7 minutes to allow flavors to blend., Stir cashews into cooked rice and serve with chicken mixture. Sprinkle with parsley.

Steps:

• Remove all excess fat from chicken thighs.
• Dice chicken into 2-3 cm pieces.
• Peel pumpkin, dice into 2X3 cm pieces.
• Wash beans, cut off tail ends.
• Cut beans into 4-5cm pieces (typically just halve them).
• Heat oil in wok then add the curry paste and shallots, cook, stirring for about 2 minutes or until fragrant.
• Add chicken, stir in fish sauce, stir-fry until just starts to be tender. You may add a little water, but you'll find that the chicken pieces release enough water to cook them.
• Chicken should be nearly cooked when you add the pumpkin pieces and 100 ml water. Simmer for 3-5 minutes covered, then add green beans. Simmer for a further five minutes. Make sure neither the pumpkin, nor the beans become too soft. The beans should stay slightly crunchy.
• Stir in coconut milk/cream. Raise heat until just to boil. Simmer uncovered until the mixture is heated through.
• Shred some coriander leaves -- place some on the surface of the red curry, save the rest for garnish on serving.

Steps:

• Peel the pumpkin, remove any seeds and fibrous bits and cut the flesh into bitesized pieces. Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the onion for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden. Stir in the ginger, cinnamon and the chicken pieces and cook for 3-5 minutes, turning to brown them slightly all over.
• Add the tomatoes, sugar and harissa, season and stir well. Add the chickpeas, pumpkin pieces and 4-5 tbsp water. Cover and cook for 20- 30 minutes or until the chicken and pumpkin are tender (the pumpkin releases its own water, but if it becomes too dry, add a drop more during the cooking to give you a juicy sauce). Stir in the chopped coriander before serving.
