Pumpkin And Thai Red Curry Chicken 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:

• In 2-quart saucepan, heat coconut milk and curry paste to simmering over medium heat. Add chicken, onion, pumpkin, fish sauce and brown sugar. Simmer 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add peas. Simmer 5 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
• Serve over rice; top with green onions and jalapeño slices.

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.
