Ingredients
- 1 can full-fat coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 3-4 tablespoons green curry paste
- ¾ cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon coconut sugar or brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- 1 ½ pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, sliced into thin pieces
- 1 cup snow peas
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- ½ lime, juiced
- 1-2 teaspoons fish sauce (optional)

Instructions
- Place a large skillet on the stove over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add ½ cup of the coconut milk. Let the milk simmer for 2-3 minutes until it starts to thicken. Add the garlic, ginger, and curry paste. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Next, add the rest of the coconut milk, chicken broth, sugar, and salt. Stir well. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Once the mixture comes to a simmer, add the chicken breast. Let the mixture simmer for 6-7 minutes.
- Add the snow peas, zucchini, and bell pepper. Let the mixture simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the veggies are tender. Stir in the lime juice and fish sauce (optional). Add more salt to taste.
- Serve hot over jasmine rice.
Notes
- A note on the green curry paste: if you are sensitive to spice, the Thai Kitchen brand is a milder option.
- This recipe is gluten-free and dairy-free. If you are wanting a vegetarian Thai green curry recipe or vegan Thai green curry, simply omit the chicken and add more of your favorite vegetables. Also pay attention to the jar of green curry paste that you use as some green curry pastes contain shrimp paste. Feel free to add tofu for more protein!
