Thai Seafood Curry Recipe

This Thai Seafood Curry is a healthy flavor explosion in your mouth! Full of mixed seafood, veggies, lite coconut milk, lime juice, green curry paste, and more… it’s easy, healthy, and so darn tasty!

Thanks to Chicken of the Sea® for sponsoring today’s post and for making it so ridiculously easy to incorporate more nutrient rich seafood into our diet!

Oh. My. Yum.

This Thai Seafood Curry Recipe is my latest obsession.

It’s healthy. It’s PACKED with flavor. And it’s easy – which is amazing since I don’t often think of curries as “easy”.

This might just be one of the most flavorful recipes I’ve ever made.

And the fact that it’s healthy just blows my mind.

One of my resolutions for 2017 is to incorporate more seafood into my diet. Did you know that 2016 Dietary Guidelines advise Americans to eat 2-3 servings of seafood per week?!

It might seem daunting, but I promise you, after you taste just one bite of this Thai Seafood Curry, you’ll be BEGGING to eat seafood EVERY night of the week. 😉

Preparing seafood has always been out of my comfort zone…don’t ask me why, but I just find it super intimidating.

Luckily, we’ve been able to partner with Chicken of the Sea® multiple times since starting Show Me the Yummy (hellloooo Spicy Tuna Roll Bowl <– make it ASAP) and they’ve made seafood SO much more approachable and has honestly been one of the reasons I’ve been able to incorporate MORE into my diet. Their sustainable seafood products make is EASY to eat more seafood.

That’s why I’m so excited to be partnering with them again to bring you this ultra deeeeelish Thai Seafood Curry.

Now. This recipe DOES take a little prep and might seem like a lot of ingredients, but once you’ve got your seafood and veggies chopped and ready, this recipe comes together in jiffy!

Yeah. I said jiffy.

Let’s talk seafood first:

1. Tilapia <– chop it
2. Shrimp <– buy it raw, peeled, de-veined, and tails off to save yourself prep
3. Chicken of the Sea® Sardines in Water <– don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it. The sardines add SO much depth to this recipe. PLUS, it’s a convenient and healthy protein option for Brain Awareness Week. Also, chop it. 😉

Now, the veg:

1. Onion <– dice it
2. Red bell pepper <– slice it
3. Carrot <– slice it (on the diagonal)

That’s really it for prep, you guys!

Let’s start cooking!

First, you’re going to melt coconut oil into a large stockpot (I used a straight edged saute pan in the video above 👆, which btw – you should watch 😉 ).

Once hot, add in green curry paste and your veggies. Cook it ‘up for about 5 minutes, then you’re going to stir in a whole bunch of yumminess:

• garlic
• ground ginger
• red pepper flakes (optional for some heat 🔥)
• salt
• lite canned coconut milk
• water
• lime juice
• soy sauce
• fish sauce
• brown sugar

You’ll bring that 👆 deliciousness to a simmer, then stir in all your prepped seafood.

From here, you’ll let the seafood cook for a quick couple of minutes, stir in some cilantro and peanuts, and you’re good to go!

You guys. This Thai Seafood Curry Recipe is going to be a healthy flavor explosion in your mouth. I LOVE the tender shrimp and tilapia, the depth of flavor from the Chicken of the Sea® Sardines in Water, the fresh tangy lime, the rich green curry paste, the creamy coconut milk…

I mean. I’m drooling just talking about it.

Easy. Flavorful. Healthy.

Doooooo it and #EatMoreSeafood!
