Thai Chicken Curry in Coconut Milk

Chicken simmered in creamy coconut milk with Thai red or green curry paste, vegetables, and fish sauce. Aromatic and spicy-sweet, this curry is rich and deeply satisfying.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 teaspoon curry paste
1 1/4 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast meat - cut into strips
1 onion, coarsely chopped
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest 1 cup light coconut milk
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat; heat the curry paste in the oil about 30 seconds. Add the chicken and cook another 3 minutes. Stir in the onion, bell pepper, lemon zest, coconut milk, fish sauce, and lemon juice; bring to a boil; cook until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle cilantro over the dish; stir. Serve hot
