Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl

In case you wondered, I still have my roommate, Rhonda and she and Cody are good company for me.  I enjoy having them around.  We sometimes take turns cooking and eating together, but she eats more Paleo and gluten-free than I do.  I do try to eat fairly healthy most of the time, but I’m not quite on that bandwagon yet and still love my sugar, but there are some dishes that we can share and enjoy.  One of the dishes that Rhonda cooks and that I absolutely LOVE is this spicy chicken rice bowl that came from Southern Living magazine.  It’s a Thai flavored dish and SO good, so I thought y’all might like it too. I dearly love good Thai food and it’s one of my faves now, much more so than Chinese.

I love the fresh ingredients in this dish, including green beans and sliced red peppers.  The flavors of the coconut milk and curry paste are very good to my taste buds.

It also has fresh ginger and lime juice with a little kick of heat from the curry paste and it’s one yummy dish.  Chopped cilantro is added on top and this is a one dish wonder, my favorite kind of dish.  With rice, veggies, and chicken all in one bowl, it’s a perfect Fall dish.  I hope you’ll try it!

Instead of typing the recipe out here on my blog, it came from My Recipes, but they have deleted it from the website.

Here’s the version I use that’s easy:

Several small sweet bell peppers or 1 large red bell pepper

1 can green beans (or you can use fresh, but if fresh you will want to cook them so they are tender)

1 15 oz. can Coconut Milk (in the Asian section of grocery store)

1 15 oz. can chicken broth or vegetable broth

2 TBL Red Curry Paste (in the Asian section)

2 TBL Ginger (I use Ginger paste in tube, but you can use fresh ginger)

1 shredded cooked chicken breast (I use rotisserie chicken most of the time)

Sautee peppers in a bit of olive oil, add the coconut milk and chicken broth, along with the curry paste and ginger. Add the chicken breast and green beans and simmer. If you want to thicken it up, add a bit of flour water that’s mixed to the mixture. The flavors are really delicious. Serve over rice.

Enjoy and I hope you’ll try it!  I’m all about some good eatin’ and this one is fantastic.

    I never knew that ginger in a tube existed and now I’ll have to buy some myself. As for Cody, what type of dog is he? He’s just soooo adorable!

    Yum! I can’t wait to try it. I actually have the ginger in a tube and just bought some fresh green beans from a roadside stand and wasn’t sure what I would do with them. Now I know…..thank you for sharing.

    The chicken dish looks good, but for whatever reason I’m afraid to try coconut milk. Silly, I know. Those are fabulous pictures of Cody.

      Coconut milk is really good in Thai dishes.
