1 can unsweetened coconut milk, full-fat, (14-ounce can) (I used Thai Kitchen Brand)

1 Tbsp brown sugar (or to taste)

1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into thin strips

1 Tbsp fish sauce (or soy sauce *see notes)

Напрямки

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Once hot, add onions and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook 3 minutes, or until onions are softened, stirring often.

Add the red curry paste, garlic, ginger, and coriander. Cook about 1 minute, or until fragrant, stirring often.

Add coconut milk, brown sugar, fish sauce, and chicken. Stir, bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered for 7 minutes, occasionally stirring.

Add carrots and bell peppers, and simmer 5-7 more minutes, until sauce slightly thickens and chicken is cooked through (took mine 7 minutes).

Remove from heat, and stir in the lime zest, half of the lime juice, and half of the cilantro.

At this point, do a taste test and add in more lime juice if needed and more: salt, sugar, or curry paste to taste. (I added 1/4 tsp more salt, and 1 TBSP more curry paste for added heat!)

Top with the remaining cilantro, and serve!
