Why this Recipe Works:

This recipe relies on readily available ingredients and a simple cooking process. Using coconut milk creates a creamy and rich sauce, while the curry powder and other spices provide a warm and complex flavor. Shrimp cooks quickly, making it an ideal protein choice for a quick and healthy meal. Best of all, no wheat flour or other gluten-containing ingredients are used, making it safe and delicious for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, grated
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup gluten-free vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and ginger and cook for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
  3. Stir in bell pepper, curry powder, turmeric, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer.
  5. Add shrimp and cook until pink and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Stir in lime juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve hot over rice (brown or white) or quinoa. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

Tips and Variations:

  • For a spicier curry, add more red pepper flakes or a chopped chili pepper.
  • You can substitute other vegetables, such as broccoli, spinach, or peas.
  • Add a squeeze of lemon juice instead of lime juice if preferred.
  • Serve with gluten-free naan bread for dipping.
