Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
- Season chicken pieces with salt and brown them in a wok or large pan with 1 tablespoon of oil over high heat. Set aside.
Parboil the Vegetables
- Parboil carrots, sweet potatoes, and green beans in boiling salted water for 4-5 minutes until slightly tender. Immediately transfer to ice water to stop the cooking process and preserve color. Drain well.
Sauté Aromatics
- Heat remaining oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the white parts of the green onions and cook until translucent. Add minced garlic and grated ginger; cook until fragrant.
Build the Curry
- Add the bruised lemongrass stalks and Thai green curry paste. Stir and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant and the oil begins to separate.
Simmer the Chicken
- Add the browned chicken and chicken stock (or water) to the pot. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes.
Add Coconut Milk and Vegetables
- Stir in sugar, coconut milk, and lime zest. Simmer gently for another 5 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through. Add the parboiled vegetables; stir gently and simmer for 2 more minutes until heated through. Stir in the lime juice and adjust seasoning with salt as needed.
Serve
- Garnish with the chopped green parts of the green onions. Serve hot with rice noodles or cooked rice.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Thai Chicken Curry
- For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk and marinate the chicken in some of the curry paste for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Adjust the amount of Thai curry paste to your spice preference. Start with less and add more to taste.
- Don't overcook the vegetables; they should be tender-crisp. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Add other vegetables like bell peppers, bamboo shoots, or mushrooms for extra flavor and texture.
