Thai red curry paste and coconut milk are easily found in the asian section of supermarkets. I am making this tomorrow after my Thai friend at work made us curry and I fell in love! Not a list of ingredients that will scare you off. From Martha Stewart Everyday Magazine October 2008. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
4 whole chicken legs |
coarse salt and pepper |
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can light coconut milk |
1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth |
1 -2 teaspoon thai red curry paste |
1 cup jasmine rice |
2 red bell peppers, cut into strips |
8 ounces fresh green beans, cut into 1 inch lengths |
1/2 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving |
Directions:
1. In a large heavy pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Working in two batches, cook chicken until browned (6-8 minutes) and transfer to a plate. 2. To pot add coconut milk, broth, 1/2 cup water, and curry paste;bring to a boil stir in rice. Add chicken in a single layer. Cover, and reduce heat to medium low, Cook without stirring until rice is almost tender, 15 minutes. 3.
