Not only do Indian cuisines specialize in delicious vegetarian meals, but they also excel in savory meat curries like this. My easy recipe features tender chicken chunks and tasty veggies simmered in a zesty curry sauce. It makes a yummy and attractive dish served over steamed rice.

Eggplant is prized in Asian cuisine for its mild, versatile flavors (depending on what it is cooked with) and in this dish stands up to the fiery hotness of the bird’s eye chilies in a coconut-milk-laced Thai green sauce. Use fresh Thai basil – if you can find it in the market to make the dish taste all the more genuine. Serve this rich green chicken curry with cooked rice, barley or any other grain of your choice along with lime wedges.

If you thought that fresh Thai inspired curries were too complicated and time-consuming, this yummy recipe will change your mind. Sauté chicken and fresh green beans with delectable curry spices, then add a generous splash of coconut milk and serve with steamed rice.

This aromatic chicken curry recipe is adapted from a classic Indian recipe. Curry powder, cinnamon, ginger root, cayenne pepper and paprika add heat, while coconut milk subtly flavors this dish. Serve with naan or jasmine rice.
