Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups water
1 cup jasmine rice
2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut in bite-sized pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced, divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger, minced
2 tablespoons Thai red chile paste
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
1 cup chicken broth
1 stalk lemongrass, bruised
3 makrut lime leaves (optional)
1 medium lime, juiced
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 crown broccoli, cut into bite-sized pieces

Steps:

  • Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and water has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Keep warm until ready to use.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken, 1/2 of the garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until chicken is browned and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate.
  • Add remaining oil to the same pan. Saute remaining garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in chile paste. Add coconut milk and stir until blended. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add chicken broth, lemongrass, lime leaves, lime juice, and fish sauce. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
  • Add chicken and broccoli, and simmer gently for 10 more minutes. Taste and season as necessary. Serve over warm rice.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my curry turned out really bland. I think I might have added too much coconut milk.

I didn't have any red curry paste, so I used a combination of red chili paste and coconut milk. It turned out great!
