Panang Curry
Description
This Panang Curry recipe starts by heating neutral cooking oil and frying Panang curry paste until fragrant. Bite-sized chicken breast pieces are added to coat with the paste, infusing the meat with deep flavor. Green peas, creamy coconut milk, bruised kaffir lime leaves, water, sugar, and fish sauce are stirred in to create a balanced sauce.
The curry simmers gently on medium heat for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is cooked and the flavors meld. Coconut milk gives the sauce its smooth texture and richness, while kaffir lime leaves contribute fresh lemony aroma. The small peas add bursts of softness in the curry.
Serve hot with steamed white rice to soak up the sauce, making a comforting and aromatic main dish that highlights Thai flavors without excessive heat.
