Number Of Ingredients 23

1 cup very thinly sliced cabbage
1 cup shredded green papaya
1 cup shredded cucumber
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Juice of 2 limes
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup chopped scallions
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon mirin
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 lime, zested and juiced
1 clove garlic, grated on a zester
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded, meat shredded
6 corn tortillas, toasted
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup fresh Thai or Italian basil leaves
1 red jalapeno or Fresno chile, very thinly sliced
Lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the slaw: In a medium bowl, combine the cabbage, green papaya and cucumber. Toss with the vinegar, sugar and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • For the chicken and sauce: In a separate bowl, combine the scallions, peanut butter, soy sauce, mirin, hot sauce, ginger, lime zest and juice, garlic and about 2 tablespoons water; add more or less water depending on how thick you want the sauce. Season with salt and pepper. Toss a small amount of the sauce with the chicken to moisten.
  • For serving: Top the toasted tortillas with the chicken, followed by some of the sauce and slaw. Garnish with the peanuts, cilantro, basil, chile and lime wedges.

THAI-STYLE COCONUT CURRY CHICKEN TACOS



Thai-Style Coconut Curry Chicken Tacos image

This weeknight chicken dish takes advantage of super flavorful jarred curry paste and pairs it with silky coconut milk to create a meal that comes together in just 20 minutes. Each step in this deceptively simple dish coaxes maximum flavor out of relatively few ingredients: Toasting the curry paste in the pan concentrates its taste, searing the chicken in the mixture ensures it's properly coated, and simmering in creamy coconut milk tenderizes the meat. A splash of lime juice and a spoonful of pico de gallo brighten and lighten the rich curry. Fold the mixture into tacos or try the curry chicken as a topping for grain bowls, cauliflower rice, sautéed broccoli or leafy greens.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons canola oil
3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, sliced 1/4-inch thick
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from approximately 2 limes), plus wedges for serving
1 large tomato, finely chopped (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems
8 (6-inch) corn tortillas
1 avocado, sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over low heat. Add the curry paste and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is softened, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook over medium heat, stirring, until no longer pink, 2 or 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the coconut milk and simmer until the sauce is thickened and the chicken starts to caramelize, about 15 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons lime juice.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, make the pico de gallo: Toss the tomato, onion, cilantro and the remaining 2 tablespoons lime juice; season with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the chicken mixture among the tortillas. Top with the pico de gallo and avocado, if using. Serve with lime wedges.

THAI CHICKEN TACOS WITH CABBAGE SLAW



Thai Chicken Tacos With Cabbage Slaw image

This is from the BH&G June 2011 issue. I make mine without the fish sauce, but only because I am allergic to all things fish :( If you an have it, by all means do. It adds even more flavor to the dish. Do NOT skip on the cilantro or lime. These are the things that make this so delicious and brings an authentic flavor to the dish. I prefer to use small, flour tortillas myself.
