Carb-Wise: Spicy Coconut Red Curry Shrimp
with Bok Choy & Butternut Squash
Here’s how to turn up the heat on a spring night. Shrimp cook quickly to juicy pink in a rich sauce that’s deeply coloured and flavoured with red curry paste, rounded out with ginger, a touch of soy and lime juice—plus coconut milk to give the tastes a smooth ride. Morsels of butternut squash (conveniently pre-cut for you) add volume and texture to every mouthful. Sautéed bok choy completes each carb-smart serving.

Preparation
Mise en place
Remove the root ends of the bok choy; halve lengthwise (quarter if large). Mince the garlic. Halve the lime; juice ½ and cut the remaining ½ into 2 wedges.
Sauté the bok choy
In a large, high-sided pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the bok choy and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until wilted; season with S&P. Transfer to a plate and reserve the pan.
Start the curry
In the same pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Add the ginger and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the squash and sauté, 4 to 6 min., until tender. Add the garlic, curry paste and soy sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant.
Finish the curry
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towel (remove the shells from the tails if desired); season with S&P. To the pan of squash, add the coconut milk and 2 tbsp water (double for 4 portions); bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to simmer and add the shrimp*. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 4 min., until opaque and cooked through. Add the lime juice; stir well.
Plate your dish
Divide the curry and bok choy between your plates. Garnish with the lime wedges. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking shellfish to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
