Directions
Marinate the Chicken
- Place chicken, coconut milk, ginger and Thai chilies in a resealable bag and refrigerate for 4 to 24 hours. Remove chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
Prepare the Sauce
- Heat oil in a heavy 3.5-Qt Sauté Pan over medium high heat.
- Add curry paste, garlic, ginger and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring often.
- Add chicken broth and coconut milk, stir to combine well and dissolve paste.
- Add fish sauce, sugar, and lime leaves. Stir to combine then bring to a simmer (light bubbles around the outside of the pan).
- Remove chicken pieces and Thai chilies from the marinade and add to the pan. Stir to combine, then lower heat to medium so it is barely bubbling. Cook for 6 minutes. Discard excess marinade including ginger pieces.
- Add Bok choy, carrots, peppers, broccoli and cook for 4 minutes.
- Taste sauce and adjust seasoning if required (fish sauce or sugar).
- Add snow peas, bamboo shoots and cook for 2 minutes until peas are slightly softened.
- Stir in basil and lime juice.
Serve and Enjoy!
