Step 1In a large skillet,( I used my 9 inch iron skillet ) melt 1 tablespoon of butter, over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp. Cook just for 2 - 3 minutes, turning once and until pink. Don't overcook...they won't take long. Remove from pan, and set aside.

Step 3Ina small dish, add the flour, curry, salt and pepper. Stir together and whisk into the vegetables. Stir constantly and cook for 1 minutes.
-
Step 4Whisk in the coconut milk, heavy cream and chicken broth. Bring to a boil and cook until thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning if need be.
-
Step 5Once thick, add the shrimp back to the pan and cook only long enough to heat the shrimp through.

Step 6To serve, make a bed of rice on a plate or bowl and ladle out broth and top with shrimp. Enjoy! It's delicious!
