Best Baked Curry Chicken Topped With Peanuts Cilantro Recipes

CHEF JOHN'S PEANUT CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix salt, coriander, cumin, turmeric, paprika, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.
• Place chicken pieces in a separate bowl and add 1/2 of the spice blend. Mix together thoroughly to coat each surface with spice blend.
• Heat oil over high heat in a heavy pot. Brown half of the chicken pieces on all sides. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with the rest of the chicken.
• Reduce heat to medium and add onion to pot. Saute until onions start to turn translucent and golden, 1 or 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook about 1 minute. Stir in remaining spice blend; cook and stir one minute. Pour in chicken broth. Add browned chicken along with accumulated juices. Stir in peanut butter and ketchup; add brown sugar. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to maintain a gentle, steady simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer zucchini, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, and peanuts to the pot. Stir to mix. Continue simmering until chicken and vegetables are fork tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Serve over rice with a squeeze of lime and a sprinkle of peanuts and chopped cilantro.

POK POK-STYLE HOT WINGS WITH PEANUTS AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F. Set a wire rack inside a large rimmed baking sheet. Toss wings, oil, and salt in a large bowl. Arrange wings in a single layer on rack and bake until golden brown, crispy, and cooked through, about 30 minutes.
• Heat a small saucepan over medium. Sprinkle a thin layer of sugar into pan, let melt, then add another layer (no stirring necessary). Repeat until all sugar is melted and turns into a syrup. Cook the syrup undisturbed until it becomes deep amber in color and smells nutty, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and slowly whisk in garlic and fish sauce (it might splatter); stir until smooth.
• Place cooked wings in a large bowl and toss well with glaze to coat. Add jalapeños, peanuts, and cilantro, toss, and serve.

BAKED CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Make shallow cuts in the chicken flesh. Pour 2 tablespoons lemon juice over the chicken and rub in sea salt.
• Combine yogurt, remaining 2 tablespoons lemon juice, oil, vinegar, garam masala, curry powder, and ginger in a bowl. Coat the chicken with the mixture, rubbing well into the cuts. Place the chicken in a 9x13-inch baking pan, cover with foil, and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning occasionally.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Add bell peppers and onions to the chicken dish. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake until chicken is no longer pink in the centers, about 10 minutes more.

PEANUT CHICKEN WITH GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Put the chicken into a large bowl. Add peanut butter, curry paste, honey, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and mix well with your hands.
• Combine broccoli, red onion, and remaining olive oil in a separate bowl. Mix well to coat. Place chicken in a roasting dish and add broccoli mixture and cooked gnocchi.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve topped with cilantro, peanuts, and lime juice.

BAKED CURRY CHICKEN TOPPED WITH PEANUTS & CILANTRO

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Place 4 chicken thighs skin-up in a baking dish. Season with salt & pepper. Chop up the celery, onion, and garlic. Heat coconut oil in a sauté pan over medium heat and add the celery and onions. Cook for about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, cook for 2 more minutes, then add the curry, chili powder, and paprika. Stir in the spices and add the can of tomatoes. Simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove from heat. Pour the sauce over the chicken, covering all the sides. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve each chicken thigh with an extra scoop of sauce on top. Garnish with chopped cilantro and a sprinkle of peanuts.
