Coconut Curry Chicken w/String Beans
/
So, I think it has become quite obvious that I love curry. I have to admit, I hesitated sharing this recipe with you guys on this post because my last food post was also a curry dish. But then I thought, it's not like this is some kind of publication--this is just my blog. And hey, I just made this last night, I liked it, so I am going to damn well share it!
This dish was a hit. To me, it's just a healthier take on the traditional style Caribbean curry chicken. Instead of potatoes, string beans are added--which equals less starch, less carbs and less calories. On hindsight, I think throwing in some shredded carrot would have been awesome too.
It was super easy to make, and for the most part I followed the recipe exactly. One thing I did do differently was instead of "burning off" some of the liquid in the end. I added a tablespoon or two of corn starch to thicken it. I like my curry to have plenty "gravy". Oh, and Publix didn't have bird pepper, so I just added a little bit of chopped serrano pepper. We likes it spicy over here.
I got this recipe from a Caribbean cooking blog that is amazing. I've made a few of his dishes and they all were great. Check it out. Recipe found HERE.
Have a great weekend, ya'll!
