Рецепт Thai Marinated Fried Chicken
Thai Marinated Fried Chicken
This recipe came to me one day when I was about to marinate some chicken in traditional buttermilk, but I had the ingredients on hand to make other recipes of mine that are popular with the family, Thai Marinated Grilled Chicken and Thai Style Pasta, especially sisters Bonnie,Hollie and Gayle. This was also good to help use up some of the spices I had on hand. Instead of using buttermilk, I used coconut milk. For flavor building and aromatics, I used Thai Green Curry Spice blend. This blend is layered with goodies, including garlic, soy bean, coriander, chili, onion, lemon grass, celery seed, carrot, chives, turmeric, pepper, mustard powder, fenugreek, cumin, chick pea, ginger and cardamon, also salt. The results were fabulous and the flavor profile is amazing. I garnished this recipe with fresh parsley from my herb garden, but using Thai Basil or cilantro would be ideal, cilantro being what I used in the above mentioned recipes. Jasmine Rice makes for a perfect accompaniment for this recipe and stir fry veggies, for an overall multicultural trip to the Orient!
