Thai Green Chicken Curry

by

🌟 A fragrant and flavorful Thai classic, this green chicken curry combines tender chicken, creamy coconut milk, and aromatic herbs and spices for a delightful meal. 🥥✨

📝 Ingredients:

  • 🍗 Chicken breast – 500 g (about 1.1 lbs), cut into pieces
  • 🥥 Coconut milk – 40 cl (about 1.5 cups)
  • 🧄 Garlic cloves – 2, minced
  • 🌿 Thai basil – 1 small bunch, leaves only
  • 🌿 Fresh coriander – 1 small bunch, 5 cm of stems removed
  • 🧅 Scallions (ciboules) – 10, chopped
  • 🌾 Lemongrass – 2 stalks, trimmed and chopped
  • 🌶️ Red chili – 1, sliced (reserve a few slices for garnish)
  • 🌱 Ginger – 10 cm (about 4 inches), peeled and grated
  • 🍋 Lime – 2 (zest and juice of 1, wedges from the other)
  • 🥄 Neutral oil (e.g., grapeseed oil) – 4 tablespoons
  • 🧂 Salt – To taste
  • ⚫ Black pepper – To taste

📋 Directions:

  1. 🥣 Prepare the Curry Paste: In a blender, combine the garlic, ginger, scallions, lemongrass, Thai basil leaves, coriander stems, chili slices, lime zest, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth to create a green curry paste.
  2. 🍗 Cook the Chicken: Season the chicken pieces with salt. Heat the neutral oil in a skillet over high heat. Sear the chicken pieces until golden on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. 🍛 Cook the Curry Paste: In the same skillet (without cleaning), reduce the heat to medium. Add the curry paste and stir for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. 🥥 Add the Coconut Milk: Pour the coconut milk into the skillet with the curry paste. Stir to combine, then return the chicken to the pan.
  5. 🍲 Simmer the Curry: Cook over medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the flavors meld together.
  6. 🍋 Serve: Garnish the curry with reserved chili slices and lime wedges. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy the burst of Thai flavors!
