Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons neutral oil (such as canola or vegetable oil, divided)
- 2 lbs chicken thighs (900g, cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
- 4 ounces green curry paste (115g)
- 5 cups mixed vegetables (such as broccoli, carrots, zucchini, bamboo shoots and/or red bell peppers)
- 13.5 ounces coconut milk (about 1 2/3 cups)
- 1 ½ cups chicken stock (355 ml)
- 5 kaffir lime leaves (lightly bruised, optional)
- 1 teaspoon Chili oil (or 1 red chili, de-seeded and chopped, optional)
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 cup basil leaves
- Steamed jasmine rice (to serve)
- cilantro (to garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add 2 tablespoons oil. Toss the chicken pieces in 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon oil until well-combined. Sear the chicken pieces in the skillet until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- If there are a lot of chicken bits stuck to your pan, deglaze with a ¼ cup of water. Then add the sliced onions to the skillet and cook until translucent. Add the curry paste and cook for 5 minutes.
- Add the vegetables and cook for 30 seconds. Add the coconut milk, chicken stock, lime leaves (if using), chili (if using), and the seared chicken pieces. Bring to a simmer and lower the heat. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. After the curry has finished simmering, stir in the fish sauce, sugar, and basil. Serve with steamed rice.
