Steps:
- Make the sauce: Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook 5 minutes, or until softened.
- Add the ginger, turmeric, curry paste and sugar and stir until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Pour in the coconut milk and fish sauce. Bring to a simmer, then lower heat and cook 10 minutes to thicken slightly. Remove from the heat, stir in the lime zest and juice. Cover to keep warm.

SWEET AND SPICY THAI CURRY AND COCONUT SAUCE
Steps:
- I like to use a hand blender at the start of this sauce to get everything blended well. Put all ingredients but the coconut in a food processor or use a hand blender until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add coconut at the end stirring in to keep flakes intact. If you are going to cook with this sauce add the sesame oil just before serving to get the best flavor from it.

Spread the chicken on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 25-30 minutes, turning once, until cooked through and just starting to brown. Remove from the oven; preheat the broiler.
- 2. While chicken is browning, in a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, fish sauce, brown sugar and the remaining red curry paste. Cook over high heat, bring to a boil for about 4 minutes and then cook over high heat stirring occassionally until slightly thickened.

Return the chicken to the sheet and pour any extra sauce over the chicken. Broil for 5 minutes, turning once (should be browned). Transfer to a platter and serve with cilantro and lime wedges.

SWEET AND SPICY CURRY WITH CHICKPEAS
One of my clients gave me a shorter version of this recipe before I left work for the day. Added a couple of things to it and loved it. Thanks a lot, Laurie. You were right -- good meal! This sauce goes well with rice or with pita bread. What's great about this recipe is you can add as much spice as you would like.
