Chicken Red Curry
4 portions
20mThis meal comes together so quickly! Feel free to use chicken thighs, tenders, or breasts here. Anything you have on hand or available will work just fine! Spice level will depend on the curry paste you buy, so choose accordingly. Try adding a little brown sugar or lime juice to tone down spice if you need. I like to serve this one over rice or quinoa.
