Thai Chicken, Revisited


I posted this recipe from Blog Princess G back in April of last year.
It has become a regular Manor favorite and I made it again Sunday
afternoon. I'll have to confess, I did alter it just a tad. This is my
version of a wonderfully scrumptious dish. It's my kind of recipe,
simple, quick and delicious. Thanks, BPG!

Thai Chicken with Vegetables

1-2 lb. skinless, boneless chicken thighs, cut in chunks
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
½ tsp turmeric
1 clove garlic, chopped finely or crushed
1 tbsp veg oil
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp fish sauce

Marinate the chicken in the mixture for for several hours or
overnight in the fridge. Saute chicken in oil in large skillet until
golden and cooked through. Remove chicken from pan and pour
off all but 2 Tbsp of the oil. Add fresh chopped peppers, onions
and celery. Saute until tender crisp and add soy sauce to taste.
Serve with steamed rice.

  7. That looks like it might work on my diet. I love people who actually use receipes. I rarely replicate exactly the dishes I prepare. I'll try and follow the instructions on this one however. Pappy

  11. Except for the garlic, it sounds good enough to eat. Garlic is too dangerous for me as I am on large amousts of blood thinners already, and vampires don't really fancy me.

  16. Hello Willow,

    I always like Thai food for the distinctive lemon grass and galangal/ginger flavour, which I notice you don't have here. But I'm sure it's no less scrummy!

  27. I like an earlier comment about broccoli and carrots mixed in. That's what's nice about this dish, it seems pretty versatile. Looks delish.

  28. I enjoyed reading your interview a great deal! I was going to post my comment there, but you already had about 80 comments so I figured there was a better chance you would see my comment here! Heh!

    I enjoyed your comment about letting kids be kids - most excellent advice! My daughter is now 21 but, well, I found that to be just wonderful advice. I hope people will heed those words of wisdom.

    I see a lot of parents dragging their kids to soccer, piano lessons, dance lessons, and on and on and on! A child needs time to be a child. It is so, so important. Activities are great but they should not be overwhelming.

    Wonderful advice!! Take care.
