How to Make Chicken Thai Green Curry

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat. Add 2-3 finely chopped green chilies (adjust to your spice preference) and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  2. Add 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until lightly browned. Add 1 tablespoon of lime juice during cooking.
  3. Remove the chicken from the wok and set aside.
  4. Add 1 inch of peeled and finely grated ginger and 2 stalks of finely chopped spring onions to the wok. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Add 2-4 tablespoons of green curry paste (adjust to your spice preference) and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  6. Pour in 1 cup of chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Pour the mixture into the wok.
  8. Bring the curry to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Add the cooked chicken back to the wok. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  9. Add 1 cup of your favorite vegetables (such as broccoli florets, bell peppers, and snow peas) and 1/2 cup of bamboo shoots. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  10. Serve hot with steamed rice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or basil leaves (optional).
