Thai Style Roasted Veg Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put all the vegetables on a baking sheet and toss with the oil to coat. Sprinkle with salt and roast until they are soft and pliable, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the vegetables are roasting whisk together all of the ingredients for the vinaigrette in a small bowl. Remove the vegetables from the oven and put them in a bowl along with the papaya. Add the vinaigrette in stages to make sure the vegetables are well coated but not overdressed. Add the basil and papaya and toss. Arrange on a pretty platter alternating the vegetables. Garnish with the lime wedges, peanuts, and cilantro. Drizzle with 1 or 2 more spoonfuls of the vinaigrette and serve. Delicious!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Place sweet potatoes, parsnips, cauliflower, carrots, bell pepper, and onion in a large bowl and toss with oil until coated. Spread in a single layer on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with salt. Roast veggies, turning occasionally, for 30 - 40 minutes, until tender and browned on parts.
• While the vegetables are roasting, start the sauce. In a large pot over medium-high heat, bring the coconut milk, curry paste, brown sugar, soy sauce, mushrooms, and basil to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• If adding chicken to half, add a little olive oil to a skillet heated to medium high and add the chicken. Sprinkle with a little kosher salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is completely cooked through and browned on some sides, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Pour the oven-roasted veggies into the sauce, and stir gently to combine. Transfer about one-third of the veggie and sauce mixture to the skillet with the chicken, and mix.
• Serve in individual bowls scooped over rice, if desired, along with fresh lime wedges for squeezing over the top (essential in our book!), fresh torn basil, and we also like a good squirt of Sriracha sauce, too.
