Equipment

  • Large Pot
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring Cups
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Ingredients
  

Protein

  • 2 lbs chicken thighs cubed
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Curry Base

  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp massaman curry paste
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions
 

  • Heat oil in a pot and cook curry paste until fragrant.
  • Add chicken and cook until lightly browned on all sides.
  • Pour in coconut milk and broth, stirring to combine smoothly.
  • Simmer until chicken becomes tender and sauce thickens slightly.

Notes

Simmer longer for softer texture or reduce time for firmer bites. Sauce thickens as it cools. Add vegetables or spice for variation. Cool before storing. Refrigerate up to four days or freeze portions for convenient meals later.
