Thai red curry with chicken

I absolutely love dishes that are colorful and spicy! Thai red curry fits the bill, and is one of my favorite meals.

This recipe utilizes ready made red curry paste, so you can cook up this curry quickly and easily.

There are many types of ready made red curry pastes available, but the one I have been using is by Mae Ploy, which I pick up at my local Asian market. Just look at the ingredients of the paste:

  • Garlic
  • Dried red chili
  • Lemongrass
  • Shallot
  • Salt
  • Galangal
  • Shrimp paste
  • Kaffir lime peel
  • Pepper

The end flavor result of mixing these ingredients is pure spice heaven!

Feel free to choose whatever vegetables you prefer to use in this dish, or use the suggestions in the recipe below. Aim for LOTS OF COLOR! Thai Red Curry With Chicken is a beautiful dish both to the eye and to the palate.

About Me

Hi I’m Grace! I'm married and a mom to my fur baby, Toby, and food and travel are two of my greatest passions! Since our bank account does not allow us to travel or eat out as much as we'd like, I decided I would cook delicious meals that could give us a taste of all the places we'd like to go. My goal is to get you in the kitchen, and inspire you to cook and taste delightful meals that will transport you too. Let’s throw some actual travel in from time to time, all with an emphasis on keeping your wallet full and happy as well. Let’s get cooking and let’s start exploring!! I'm excited to be on this journey with you!!

By the way most of these recipes are Toby taste tested and Toby approved!!
