A week or so ago I made a Pineapple Curried Chicken. I made that recipe up since I didn't have coconut milk on hand. It was REALLY good, but there's just something I LOVE about coconut milk with curry.
So here is my delicious recipe!
Coconut Curried Chicken (serves 3-4)
- 2 frozen chicken breasts
- 1 bag of frozen stirfry vegetables
- 13.5 oz can lite coconut milk
- 14.5 oz can petite diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon curry
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Spray crockpot with cooking spray. Very important! Place frozen chicken breasts at the bottom. Pour the frozen vegetables on top.
- In a bowl, mix the remaining ingredients, except the corstarch, until smooth. Pour over the vegetables and chicken.
- Cover the crockpot and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 5-6. 10 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water.
- Fish out the 2 chicken breasts and chop into small, bite sized chunks. Pour the chicken back into the crockpot.
- Add in the cornstarch/water mix. Stir the contents of the crockpot and wait 5 minutes. Add additional cornstarch/water to reach desired thickness. Serve over rice.
Ok, this is so yummy!
Normally, instead of using tomato sauce and cornstarch, I would just use a can of tomato paste. I like the sauce thicker, so if you do too, swap out the tomato sauce and cornstarch for the paste.
Enjoy!
I love LOVE indian food but I always just do the kits because in the other recipes there are so many spices!! but this is totally doable!
ReplyDeleteI made coconut curry tofu and vegetables two nights ago....I love it. Except it does make my house smell like an Indian restaurant for a few days :)
ReplyDeletei have a recipe for coconut curry chicken in the crockpot and it doesnt look half as good as this. scratch that one, i'm making yours! plus mine requires at least 20 minutes of work before hand. i use a crockpot because i don't have time to do cooking... no way is that prep time happening at 6 in the morning before work!
