Coconut Peanut Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• For the Sauce: Heat coconut milk, peanut butter, and broth in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and heated through (do not let boil).
• Add remaining sauce ingredients, seasoning to taste, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens to the consistency of thin spaghetti sauce.
• Remove from heat and cover, if will continue to thicken off the heat.
• To prepare the chicken:.
• Heat some sesame oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and stir fry the chicken chunks until almost cooked through.
• While the chicken is cooking, squeeze some lime juice into the pan to add moisture, as much as needed.
• Set aside about 1/2 cup of the diced scallions for a garnish later, and add the rest to the chicken, along with the carrots and stir fry until the veggies are lightly browned and the chicken is fully cooked, adding even more lime juice as needed for moisture.
• Pour some of the peanut sauce over the chicken in the pan and toss to coat (a ladleful or two).
• Portion cooked pasta onto serving plates and ladle some more peanut sauce on top of each (or if you prefer, toss pasta with some of the sauce first).
• Ladle chicken mixture on top of each portion, and drizzle with a bit more peanut sauce if desired.
• Sprinkle with some cayenne pepper and some reserved scallions (and nuts if desired) as garnish.
• You may have extra sauce, which keeps about 2 days covered in the fridge, a nice dip for chicken fingers.

Steps:

• In a 5-qt. slow cooker, whisk coconut milk and peanut butter until smooth. Stir in tomatoes, onion, peppers, brown sugar, garlic and seasonings. Add chicken; cook, covered, on low 5-6 hours or until chicken is tender. Stir before serving. Sprinkle with cilantro; if desired, serve with rice.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a deep frying pan over a medium heat. Brown the chicken in batches, setting aside once golden. Fry the onion for 8 minutes until softened. Then add the garlic, chilli and ginger and fry in the other 1 tbsp oil for 1 min. Add the garam masala and fry for 1 min more.
• Stir in the peanut butter, coconut milk and tomatoes, and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan and add the chopped coriander. Cook for 30 mins until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
• Serve with the remaining coriander, roasted peanuts and rice, if you like.

Steps:

• Mix salt, coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.
• Place chicken pieces in a separate bowl and add 1/2 of the spice blend. Mix together thoroughly to coat each surface with spice blend.
• Heat oil over high heat in a heavy pot. Brown half of the chicken pieces on all sides. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the rest of the chicken.
• Reduce heat to medium and add onion to pot. Saute until onions start to turn translucent and golden, 1 or 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook about 1 minute. Stir in remaining spice blend; cook and stir one minute. Pour in chicken broth. Add browned chicken along with accumulated juices. Stir in peanut butter and ketchup; add brown sugar. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to maintain a gentle, steady simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer zucchini, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, and peanuts to the pot. Stir to mix. Continue simmering until chicken and vegetables are fork tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Serve over rice with a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of peanuts and chopped cilantro.
