How to Make Thai Coconut Chicken And Rice
- In a medium pot or Dutch oven, whisk together 2 tablespoons of red curry paste with 1/2 cup of coconut milk until smooth.
- Add 1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes, to the pot. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
- Stir in 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk, 1 cup of chicken broth, 1/2 cup of chopped bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup of frozen peas, 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and the juice of 1 lime. Bring to a simmer.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency and the peas are tender. If making a soup, add 1 cup of chicken broth and 1/4 cup of thinly sliced mushrooms and scallions during the last 2 minutes of simmering.
- Serve hot over 2 cups of cooked basmati rice or white rice. Garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges.
