Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons salted butter
1/4 cup celery (diced)
1/4 cup onion (diced)
1/4 cup carrots (diced)
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup light sour cream
1 cup sliced Curry Chicken
2 sheets frozen puff pastry (thawed)
1 egg (whisked)
2 tablespoons water
flake sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Add butter to a skillet over medium high heat. Toss in celery, onion, and carrots and stir to coat in the butter.
  • Cook for approximately 5 minutes or until veggies are tender and fragrant.
  • Stir in the flour and curry powder and stir to coat. Once the veggies are all coated and a paste forms, stir in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low. Allow to thicken for about 1-2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
  • Stir in the sour cream and the sliced chicken breast. Set aside.

  • Add 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture to one half of each circle. Moisten the edge of each circle with a small amount of water, and then fold over the dough to cover the mixture
  • and press to close. Use a fork to close each hand pie. Lay each completed hand pie on a greased baking sheet, about 1" apart.
  • Repeat with remaining dough.
  • In a small bowl, combine whisked egg and water. Brush each hand pie with egg mixture and then sprinkle lightly with flake sea salt.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until crisped and golden. Serve warm.

COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN SKEWERS



Coconut Curry Chicken Skewers image

These small brochettes, about 2 ounces each, are perfect party food. Ideally they are grilled outdoors over coals, but also work fine on a stovetop cast iron grill or under the broiler. Threading each piece of meat onto two skewers, rather than one, keeps the meat from twirling and makes it easier to grill. (If using bamboo skewers, soak them in warm water for 15 minutes, so they won't catch fire.) The spicy curry sauce is used both as a marinade and a dipping sauce.

Categories     dinner, lunch, skewers and kebabs, main course

Time 1h45m

Yield 8 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breasts or thighs
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon turmeric, more for seasoning meat
1/4 teaspoon cayenne, more for seasoning meat
2 teaspoons garam masala
Zest and juice of 1 small lime
1 1/2 cups thick coconut milk
2 tablespoons grated ginger
3 tablespoons grated unsweetened coconut, fresh or frozen
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon yellow or black mustard seeds

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into flat 2-x-2-inch pieces. (You should have about 24 pieces.) Mix 1 tablespoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne. Use mixture to season chicken lightly on both sides.
  • To skewer, lay meat flat on cutting board. Thread meat onto two skewers spaced equidistant from center; do this first with one skewer, then the other. Put three pieces of chicken onto each set of skewers, for eight brochettes total.
  • In a blender, put 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, garam masala, lime zest and juice, coconut milk, ginger and grated coconut. Blend to obtain a smooth sauce. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Put oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and let them pop (this only takes a few seconds). Pour oil and seeds into the coconut curry mixture and stir.
  • Lay brochettes on a tray in one layer. Spoon 8 tablespoons curry mixture over chicken and spread to cover evenly on both sides. (Save remaining sauce.) Leave at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate several hours, then bring to room temperature.
  • Grill over medium-hot fire for about 3 minutes per side (longer if using thighs), until meat feels firm when poked with a finger. Serve with reserved sauce.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Pastries

Time 1h45m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons curry powder
½ cup coconut milk, or more as needed
2 red onions, chopped
1 stalk lemon grass, thinly sliced
1 red chile pepper, roughly chopped
1 large russet potato, diced
¾ pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut in bite-sized pieces
1 teaspoon salt
1 (17.25 ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in coriander, turmeric, cumin, and curry powder. Cook a few seconds until fragrant. Pour in coconut milk, onions, lemon grass, and red pepper; cook until the vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes. Stir in potato and continue cooking for 12 minutes, adding more coconut milk if the mixture becomes too dry. Stir in the chicken, then season with salt. Cook and stir until chicken and potato has absorbed most of the liquid, then spread mixture on a plate to cool.
  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Unfold puff pastry and cut each sheet into 9 squares. Place heaping spoonfuls of the filling in the center of each square. Gather all 4 corners of the pastry and pinch together at the top, forming a small pouch. Place each pastry on the baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 22 to 27 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
