Curry Chicken With Coconut And Peanuts


When i was in college, i worked in an asian restaurant. My boss made the best curry i have ever tasted, and after much prodding and bothering the poor man, he finally fessed up! I have worked for years to get the recipe right, and i think this is it! i hope you like it as much as i do.

Steps


Cut chicken into cubes , and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Slice onion in julienne , and mash garlic.
In a large wok , , heat oil to just below smoking.
Add garlic and stirfry til golden , and quickly add onions , and stir.
When the onions begin to soften , add chicken , and stir fry until cooked through and browned a bit--liquid from chicken should all be evaporated.
Add wine and reduce a little , then add peanut butter , boullion , ginger , curry and cilantro.
Stir to coat well , and until peanut butter has melted.
Add water , and simmer about 15 minutes , or until flavors have blended well.
Add coconut milk and heat to just below boiling , then add cornstarch slurry to thicken as desired.
Serve over steamed rice , with chopped cilantro and peanuts to garnish.
I like it a bit spicy , so i also add chopped chilies , or cayenne to the dish.
