Thai-Style Red Curry with Turkey and Green Beans
From Whole Foods Market
Serves 6
Use leftover turkey (and perhaps green beans) from Thanksgiving to make
this bright, spicy curry. Or substitute cubed, cooked chicken, tempeh
or tofu. Ladle it over cooked brown rice or spaghetti squash and top
with chopped cilantro if you wish. Ingredients with an asterisk (*) are
available as Whole Foods Market Brands.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 red onion, cut into 11/2-inch chunks
2 to 3 tablespoons red curry paste
1 (13.5-ounce) can light coconut milk*
11/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 cups (about 1 1/4 pounds) shredded roasted turkey breast
6 carrots, chopped
1 (16-ounce) package frozen haricots verts*
1 to 2 tablespoons lime juice
Method
Heat oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add onion and cook,
stirring often, until deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in curry
paste and cook for 1 minute more. Whisk in coconut milk and broth, add
turkey and carrots and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low,
cover and simmer until carrots are almost tender, 7 to 8 minutes.
Uncover, stir in green beans and lime juice and cook until carrots are
tender and curry is thickened and hot throughout, 6 to 8 minutes more.
