Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds chicken breast chopped into 1-inch pieces, boneless skinless
- 4 tablespoons red curry paste
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil or coconut oil
- 1/2 butternut squash peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces, 4 cups, small
- 2 coconut milk full fat, 14-ounce cans
- 2 tablespoons lime juice or fish sauce, fresh
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 2 cinnamon stick
- 2 star anise pods
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 3 to 5 kaffir lime leaves
- 2 to 3 tablespoons almond butter optional, unsweetened, creamy
For Serving:
- basmati rice cooked
- Thai basil
Instructions
- Place chicken in a mixing bowl along with the red curry paste and 2 tablespoons avocado oil. Stir well and allow meat to marinate at least 15 minutes (up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
- While chicken is marinating, peel and chop the butternut squash into 1-inch cubes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chicken and brown 2 to 3 minutes (don’t cook meat all the way through).
- Add the remaining ingredients except the kaffir lime leaves and almond butter (butternut squash through sea salt) to the pot and stir well. Cover and bring to a full boil. Reduce heat to low and cook, covered for 1 hour. Remove the cover and cook at a gentle boil for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened. Stir in the kaffir lime leaves. Stir in the almond butter for an even thicker, more luscious sauce.
- Remove cinnamon sticks and star anise.
- Serve massaman curry with basmati rice (or spaghetti squash or cauliflower rice).
Notes
- *Or peanut butter
