Savory Thai Chicken Curry: A Flavorful Delight for Your Taste Buds

Step 1

In a large saucepan, heat up some fragrant sesame oil over medium heat. Let the diced onion and minced garlic sizzle in the oil until the garlic starts to turn a lovely golden brown, which should take around 3 to 4 minutes. Toss in chunks of potatoes, carrots, a dollop of curry paste, fresh ginger, a splash of fish sauce, a hint of spicy chile paste, and a sprinkle of aromatic coriander. Give everything a good mix until all the flavors meld together nicely.

Step 2

Pour in creamy coconut milk and a half cup of water, then season with a pinch of salt and a crack of black pepper. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and let it gently simmer for about 10 minutes. Add in tender chicken pieces, sliced zucchini, and colorful bell peppers. Cover the pot again and continue simmering until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes more.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix some cornstarch with the remaining half cup of water until smooth, then stir it into the bubbling mixture. Uncover the pot, crank up the heat to high, and let it come to a vigorous boil. Keep it boiling for 3 to 4 minutes. Take it off the heat and stir in freshly chopped cilantro and a squeeze of zesty lime juice right before serving.
