Simple Chicken And Coconut Milk Curry

This is really easy and really good. If you want to make a "meal in a pot", add some fresh green beans when the chicken is cooked and cook for 5 minutes or so until the beans are just tender. Adding a squeeze of lime is great.

Type: Chicken, Poultry
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 tablespoons 30mlVegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons 7.5mlWhole black peppercorns
3   Cinnamon stick - (1 1/2" ea)
10   Whole cloves
8   Cardamom pods
3   Dried red chilies
1 tablespoon 15mlGrated fresh ginger
8   Chicken thighs - skinned
1   Coconut milk - (14 oz)
  Salt - to taste

Recipe Instructions

Over high heat in a medium-sized heavy pot, heat the oil. Add the peppercorns, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and red chilies. Stir until the cardamom darkens slightly. Add the ginger, give a few stirs and add the chicken and coconut milk.

Salt very lightly. Add enough water to just cover the chicken pieces. Bring to a boil, turn down to a simmer and cook uncovered for 40 minutes. The sauce will have thickened slightly. Season to taste. Try it with a squeeze of lime.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
