Cooking Steps
- Add 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- 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, trim, then halve peas.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Sprinkle over half the Cream Sauce Spice Blend, then season with pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add coconut to the dry pan.
- Toast, stirring often, until golden, 1-2 min. Transfer to a plate.
- Reheat the pan over medium-high. Add 1/2 tbsp oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Cook chicken in 2 batches for 4 ppl, using 1/2 tbsp oil per batch.) Pan-fry until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side.
- Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet. Roast in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 8-10 min.**
- While chicken is roasting, reheat the same pan over medium-high.
- Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then snow peas. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 1-3 min.
- Add green curry sauce, remaining Cream Sauce Spice Blend and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to the pan with peas. Cook, stirring constantly, until combined, 30 sec.
- Add coconut milk to the pan, then stir to combine. Bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender-crisp and curry thickens slightly, 1-3 min. Remove from heat.
- Thinly slice green onion.
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the coconut and half the green onions.
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Divide rice between bowls.
- Top with chicken, then green curry sauce.
- Sprinkle over remaining coconut and remaining green onions.
