Chicken Coconut Super-Veggie Curry
- 3 chicken breasts, cubed and cooked through
- 1 huge yellow squash, cubed or diced
- 1 huge zucchini, cubed or diced
- 10 yellow cherry tomatoes, halved (remove skins if you don't like 'em)
- 1/2 of a medium onion, diced
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp curry powder
- 1 can of coconut milk
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 whole lime, juiced
- 1 squirt of hot sesame oil (or red pepper flake! or Sriracha!)
- 1 handful of chopped cilantro
- 2 cups of basmati rice cooked according to package directions
Start by cooking your chicken through with a bit of olive oil. I did this ahead of time, but you can do it as the first step in the process. Throw your diced and chopped veggies into the pot with your chicken to cook down a bit and get tender. I used a pot because this makes enough to feed an army. Deep sides are a good thing. Add all of the ingredients except the tomatoes and cilantro to the pot and let it simmer until your house smells stupidly good--about 10-15 minutes. Reserve the tomatoes and cilantro until the last 5 minutes if you don't want them to disintegrate.
Serve over basmati rice. We didn't eat anything with this dish since all of the veggies were built in, and it was a quick, week-night meal. However, a spinach salad would've been super awesome.
This was slap yo' mama good. My husband and my son both loved the big flavor, and my son doesn't like anything but hot dogs and pizza. There were plenty of leftovers and we annihilated them the very next day.
Win!

This sounds really yummy! We might be making it today (we already have all the ingredients in the house right now)!
ReplyDeleteI hope you like it if you decide(d) to make it!
DeleteThis sounds delicious - I love curries and this one looks simple!
ReplyDeleteVery simple! I've never made curry at home before, but this is now one of our faves.
DeleteSounds like a delicious recipe! I have a problem with big summer squash, though. (Too many seeds?) I have no problem with big zucchini, for some reason. We've been trying to pick and eat our squashes small this year, but they don't go as far in a recipe that way!
ReplyDeleteOur summer squash haven't gotten too big, mostly just the zucchini. True! They are harder to stretch when they're on the small side. :)
DeleteI love Pioneer Woman! All the recipes of hers that I've tried have been tasty! :)
ReplyDeleteYes! She's a winner for me as well.
DeleteOh this sounds so good and so easy. I have most of the ingredients in the house and we're grilling chicken tonight. If I have any chicken left over, I'm make a variation of this on Monday.
ReplyDeleteSo very easy! I hope you like it if you try!
DeleteThis is such a great way to use up vegetables.
ReplyDeleteAmen! Even my child and husband like it!
DeleteSounds yummy! I'll definitely try this recipe, because I LOVE curries. It's one of my favourite dishes to make. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteSoooooooooo good! I hope you like it!
DeleteThis looks amazing - I love curries and this is simple AND has vegetables. Thanks for sharing, I will have to try it out.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing - simple AND has vegetables. I've pinned it, will have to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI have two of PW's cookbooks and almost every recipe I've tried has been a winner. This sounds like another great meal, although I'm not sure if my hubby will like the curry. I'll have to give it a try, maybe cutting the recipe in half the first time around. We're a rather small army. ;)
ReplyDeleteIf your hubby likes Thai food, you might give this recipe a try. My granddaughter practically begs for it when she comes out to visit! Super easy and delicious.
