Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Red curry paste
• 13.5 ounces Coconut milk
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
• 1 large Carrot, sliced thinly
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 large Zucchini, cut into half-moons
• 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
• 2 cups Jasmine rice, cooked
• 4 pieces Lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper on both sides, then slice it into thin strips.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced chicken to the skillet, cooking until lightly browned and mostly cooked through, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the red curry paste and sauté it for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth, stirring well to combine with the curry paste.

Step 6

Mix in the brown sugar and fish sauce, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

Step 7

Add the carrots, red bell pepper, and zucchini to the skillet. Stir well, cover, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Return the chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat it in the sauce. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to finish cooking.

Step 9

Stir in the fresh basil leaves and cook for an additional minute before removing the skillet from heat.

Step 10

Serve the Thai curry chicken and vegetables over warm jasmine rice, and garnish with lime wedges for a burst of freshness.
