How to Make Spicy Thai Chicken And Vegetables

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, 1/4 cup fish sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1 teaspoon grated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes.
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 inch piece of ginger (minced), and 1-2 red bell peppers (sliced). Sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the sautéed vegetables to the coconut milk mixture.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Add 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (sliced into 1/2 inch strips). Cook until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Add the chicken to the coconut milk mixture.
  4. Add 1-3 Thai chili peppers (finely minced or sliced), depending on your desired spice level. Start with one and add more to taste.
  5. Simmer the mixture for 5 more minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has slightly thickened.
  6. Serve hot over cooked jasmine rice.
  7. Garnish with 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts.
