My cousin Dayle shared this Coconut Curry Shrimp recipe with me to include in my Recipe Book. At first, I was a little hesitant because my wife doesn’t like shellfish and we rarely eat dishes made with curry.

But I decided to give it a shot as Dayle told me this was one of her favorite dishes to make for her family. And boy was she right! This is a great tasting recipe. You need to trust me on this one.

The hardest part of this recipe is to make sure you don’t overcook the shrimp. Raw shrimp takes approximately 4 to 5 minutes to cook. Just keep an eye on them and stir occasionally.

Edamame beans are packed full of nutrients, proteins, and antioxidants and makes them an excellent source of energy and fiber. They are naturally gluten-free, low in calories, and high in essential fatty acids.

You will need the following ingredients to make this Coconut Curry Shrimp recipe (see recipe card for quantities): Coconut Cream, Shrimp, Lime, Shelled Edamame, Carrots, Curry Powder, Garam Masala, Yellow Onion, Garlic Cloves, Coconut Oil, Cilantro and Chili Paste.
