Instructions
- Add rice to the boiling water, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. (NOTE: Reduce heat to low if water is boiling over.)
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, cut bok choy into 1/2-inch pieces. (TIP: Rinse bok choy leaves to wash away any hidden dirt!)
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch slices.
- Zest, then cut lime into wedges.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut chicken into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Sprinkle over half the Dal Spice Blend, then season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden, 2-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
- Transfer to a plate.
- Add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the same pan (used in step 3), then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, 1-2 min.
- Add chicken. Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is golden-brown, 2-3 min.**
- Add red curry paste and remaining Dal Spice Blend to the pan.
- Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 1-2 min.
- Add coconut milk, bok choy and 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min.
- Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in lime zest and half the crispy shallots.
- Divide rice between bowls, then top with curry.
- Sprinkle over peanuts and remaining crispy shallots.
- Squeeze over a lime wedge, if desired.
