Coconut Curry Chicken (Tom)
What you will need for dinner for 4 peeps:
- 1 Chicken breast, boneless and skinned cut into 1" x 1/2" cubes
- 1 Red bell pepper, 1" pieces
- 1 Onion, small, diced
- 2 Carrots, 1" pieces
- 1 Tomato, small, diced
- 2 Celery stalks, 1/4" pieces
- 1 Garlic clove, large, chopped in small pieces
- 1 tablespoon of curry powder
- 8 oz. can of Cream of Coconut
- 1 cup of cooked rice, we like Jasmine Rice
- 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil
Time to cook.
The flavors of the curry and the sweetness from the coconut cream really make your taste buds jump up and down.
We like to cut our veggies and chicken and set them on the side or put back in refrigerator until we're ready to go.
Have an additional clean plate on the side for the chicken.
Start your rice if you have not.
Rice is great because it will stay warm for 20 minutes.
Have your wok or large pan ready.
Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil to your pan. Heat medium to high depending how fast you work.
Stir in the chicken cubes and cook for about 3 minutes until all sides are no longer pink. Take out put in a clean plate. Add the remaining vegetable oil to the wok or pan, heat for one minute.
Add the peppers, onions, celery and carrots. Stir fry for 5 minutes. add the garlic and diced tomatoes.
Add the chicken.
Stir in the curry powder followed by the cream of coconut. Cook for one to minutes, stirring the mixture to create a sauce.

Curried Fig Grilled Turkey Breast (Tom)
We made this dish for our weekend guests Bubba Bob and Debbie. It is easy, inexpensive and quick.
Here is what you will need for 4 people:
- 1 1/2 to 2 lbs. boneless turkey breasts ( may be 2 pieces)
The glaze
- 2 ounces rum
- 1/2 cup of fig preserves
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- salt and pepper
Spray the grill with cooking spray then pre-heat the grill to a medium flame.
Mix the glaze ingredients in a bowl. Place the breast or breasts on the grill. Cook each side for 5 minutes. Then start brushing the glaze on the breast. Repeat brushing the glaze while cooking until done. When the breast reaches 180 to 190 degrees remove and let sit for 5 minutes before slicing.
We served this dish with sliced grilled sweet potatoes and June's sauteed brussel sprouts. The sprouts are fantastic. June will post that recipe soon.
Enjoy
