Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g chicken breast
- 1 large zucchini
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 medium red onion
- 3 tbsp green curry paste
- 200 ml coconut milk
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 2 cups water
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 8 bamboo skewers
Instructions
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Cut the chicken breast into 1.5-inch cubes. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion into similarly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
In a small mixing bowl, combine green curry paste, coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Mix until smooth.
Mince the garlic and chop the cilantro. Stir both into the green curry marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken and vegetables in the bowl. Mix thoroughly to coat everything evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for stronger flavor.
While the chicken marinates, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Combine 1 cup of jasmine rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly brush with the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Thread the marinated chicken and vegetables onto the soaked bamboo skewers, alternating for color and variety.
Grill the kebabs for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
Fluff the cooked jasmine rice with a fork and divide onto serving plates.
Place the grilled kebabs over the rice. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant flavors!
