THAI CHICKEN CURRY

Frequent trips to New York City and its diverse food scene got me hooked on spicy Thai food. I know most people don't have a heat-proof tongue like I do, so I kept this version pretty mild-you can always amp up the heat if you like! -Corey Rupp, Dunmore, Pennsylvania

Time 50m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 -3 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into bite sized pieces)
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons red curry paste
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 red bell peppers (chopped)
1 tablespoon yellow curry powder
1 tablespoon chili paste
1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon sweet basil
1 garlic clove (minced)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated or minced)
1/2 onion (chopped finely)
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add chicken, and cook just until white on all sides (do not overcook). Remove chicken and drain.
  • Add onion, garlic and ginger and cook until transparent.
  • Add coconut milk, then add the rest of the ingredients. Mix well and let come to a boil.
  • Turn down heat to a simmer, and add chicken back into the skillet. Cover and simmer, stirring about every 10 minutes. I usually simmer it for about a half an hour covered, then remove the cover for the last 10 minutes to thicken a bit.
  • Serve over rice, and enjoy!

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use coconut cream instead of milk.
  • Add a tablespoon of fish sauce for an extra savory kick.
  • If you like your curry spicier, add an extra teaspoon of curry paste or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute tofu or chickpeas for the chicken.
  • Serve with jasmine rice, roti bread, or your favorite grain.

Conclusion:

Thai Orange Curry Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its vibrant flavors and creamy texture, this curry is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and flavorful meal, give this recipe a try.
