Coconut Thai Shrimp And Rice Crock Pot Recipes

Steps:

• A note on ingredients: a small can of diced green chiles works fine. The original recipe called for 2 seeded chopped jalapeños, so I think any hot pepper would work. I use the pre-cleaned frozen shrimp and they are fine for this recipe, you don't need anything fancy. If I am making pineapple salad, I use fresh pineapple in this recipe. Otherwise, I use canned crushed pineapple.
• Start by placing the shrimp in a large self-close bag or medium glass bowl. Add the peppers, garlic, ginger, honey, soy sauce, and coconut milk. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, combine olive oil, salt, onions, and bell peppers. Cook until vegetables become slightly soft, but not browned.
• Turn heat up to high and place the shrimp (not the marinade, just the shrimp) in the skillet. Sauté, turning once, until shrimp are just slightly browned on the outside and turning pink. You want them slightly undercooked.
• Remove shrimp, onions, and peppers from the skillet. Pour the marinade into the skillet and bring it to a boil. Boil it for 5 minutes. This is long enough to cook the "shrimp juice" that got into the marinade and also to thicken the sauce.
• Turn the heat off. Add the shrimp mixture back to the skillet. Add the basil and green onions. Toss to combine. Serve immediately over rice.
• Rice:.
• In a small covered saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, and stock (or water). Use up the rest of the can of coconut milk, and add enough additional liquid to total 1.5 cups.
• Bring to a boil and then reduce heat. Cook covered. Simmer for 12-15 minutes. Add pineapple. Fluff with a fork.

Steps:

• Mix chicken broth, water, coriander, cumin, salt, cayenne, lime zest, lime juice, garlic and ginger in crock pot.
• Stir in onion, bell pepper, carrot, coconut, raisins and rice.
• Cover and cook on low setting 3 1/2 hours, or until rice is just tender.
• Stir in the shrimp and snow peas.
• Cover and cook another 30 minutes.
• Serve garnished with toasted coconut.

Steps:

• Place chicken in 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker. Add coconut milk. Stir in both envelopes of sauce mix, carrots and onion.
• Cover and cook on low heat setting 8 to 10 hours.
• About 30 minutes before serving, heat water to boiling in 2-quart saucepan over high heat. Remove from heat and stir in rice; cover and let stand about 5 minutes or until water is absorbed. Fluff rice with fork before serving.
• Remove chicken from cooker; keep warm. Add shrimp and peas to cooker. Increase heat setting to high. Mix 1/4 cup sauce from cooker and the cornstarch in small bowl; stir into mixture in cooker. Cover and cook 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently, until shrimp are pink and firm and sauce has thickened slightly.
• Meanwhile, remove chicken from bones; coarsely chop chicken and return to cooker. Serve chicken mixture over rice. Garnish with peanuts and cilantro.

Steps:

• Place coconut milk in a 2-cup measure; add enough water to measure 2 cups. In a 2-qt. microwave-safe baking dish, combine rice, 1 tablespoon butter, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and coconut milk mixture. Microwave, uncovered, on high until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, 20-25 minutes., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat remaining butter over medium-high heat; saute shrimp until pink, 5-7 minutes. Stir in pepper and remaining salt., Stir green onions into rice. Serve with shrimp and lime wedges.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, heat coconut oil over medium. Add the onion, ginger and jalapeño and season with the 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, until the onion is soft and translucent, about 6 minutes.
• Add the rice and sauté for another minute. Then stir in the coconut milk and 1 1/4 cups water. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer but avoid scorching.
• Stir in the shrimp and corn, cover again, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is cooked through and the rice is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. (Add more water by 1/2 cups throughout cooking as needed if the water has been absorbed, but the rice is still too firm.)
• Remove from the heat and stir in the lime zest and basil; season to taste with salt. Serve immediately with lime wedges and topped with more basil.
