Ingredients

Ingredients

Serves 4

* 1 tablespoon Olive oil

* 2 cups Pre-cooked shrimp

* Coarse salt and ground pepper

* 1 can (14.5 ounces) light coconut milk

* 1 1/2 cups Canned reduced-sodium chicken broth

* 1 to 2 teaspoons Thai red curry paste

* 1 cup Jasmine rice

* 2 red bell peppers (ribs and seeds removed), cut into 1-inch pieces

* 8 ounces Green beans (stem ends removed), cut into 1-inch lengths

* 1/2 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving

Preparation

Directions

1. In a 5-quart Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil over medium-high. Add pre-cooked shrimp ( if using chicken, season chicken with salt and pepper. Working in two batches, cook chicken until browned, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer to a plate (chicken will cook more in step 2).

2. To pot with shrimp, add coconut milk, broth, 1/2 cup water, and curry paste; bring to a boil, and stir in rice. (if using chicken, add chicken with any juices), arranging pieces in a single layer. Cover, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, without stirring, until rice is almost tender, 15 minutes. ** i used microwaveable jasmine rice from superstore/loblaws...only 2 min to cook in microwave.**

3. Scatter bell peppers and green beans on top of shrimp ( or chicken mixture) cover, and cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Cook's Notes

i added a bit more of the thai red curry paste to make the dish a little spicier.
