@foodierandy: EASY MEALS FOR 2, EP 8 Chicken Coconut Green Curry Not authentic in any way, just an easy meal I toss for easy weeknight dinners ! Ingredients Curry * 400-500g chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces * 1 tbsp vegetable oil * 47g onion, (half an onion) finely chopped * 2 cloves garlic (about 7g), minced * 1 tsp ginger paste * 50g Thai green curry paste * 330ml coconut milk, divided * 1 cup (240ml) chicken broth * ½ tbsp brown sugar * Splash of fish sauce (about 1–2 tsp) * 1 red bell pepper, sliced * 8 Thai basil leaves * Juice of ½ lime Spinach Blend * 165ml coconut milk (taken from the total above) * 50g spinach Instructions 1. Make the Spinach Coconut Blend In a blender, combine: * 165ml coconut milk * 50g spinach Blend until completely smooth and bright green. Set aside. 2. Build the Curry Base Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add: * Onion * Garlic * Ginger paste Cook for 2–3 minutes, until fragrant and softened. 3. Cook the Curry Paste Add the green curry paste and sauté for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until aromatic. 4. Add Liquids Pour in the spinach-coconut mixture and stir until fully incorporated with the curry paste. Add: * Remaining 165ml coconut milk * 1 cup chicken broth Whisk or stir until smooth. 5. Season the Curry Stir in: * ½ tbsp brown sugar * Fish sauce Bring to a gentle simmer. 6. Cook the Chicken Add the chicken and simmer gently for 10–15 minutes, or until fully cooked through. 7. Finish the Curry Add: * Sliced red bell pepper * Thai basil leaves Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the peppers are slightly tender but still vibrant. Remove from heat and stir in the juice of ½ lime. 8. Serve Serve hot over steamed jasmine rice. Notes * Use chicken thighs, they stay juicy and tender in the curry. Chicken breast can get super dry and overcooked. * For the broth, I recommends Better Than Bouillon Chicken Base mixed with water rather than store-bought chicken stock for a richer flavor. * USE A HIGH QUALITY GREEN CURRY PASTE ! A weak curry paste will ruin the entire dish. I used the Aroy-D brand ! #curry #chickenrecipes #DinnerIdeas #cooking #creatorsearchinsights
