Thai Red Curry with Chicken and Broccolini
I found this Thai red curry with chicken and broccolini on Damn Delicious and couldn’t resist it. My kids both kept telling me how delicious dinner smelled while it was cooking, which is always a good sign. I served this curry over Jasmine rice and topped with lots of cilantro, green onions, lime juice, and extra sriracha on the side for those who wanted more spice. We all REALLY enjoyed this meal and I will definitely make it again soon.
How to Make Thai Red Curry with Chicken and Broccolini
Heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and onion then season with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Cook, stirring often, for 3-4 minutes.
Add the garlic, Thai red curry paste, and ginger. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated with the aromatics, about 45-60 seconds. Add the coconut milk and broccolini then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for few minutes to thicken. Taste and season with sea salt, if needed.
Serve ladled over cooked Jasmine rice, if desired. Top with fresh cilantro, green onions, lime juice, and sriracha if desired. Enjoy!

Very yummy! I love Thai flavours.
Good pics of a very nice presentation Pam – it’s obvious you are a serious food blogger.
Wow, this looks terrific! Never met a curry I didn’t like, and Thai ones might be the best. Thanks!
This does look delicious and I love Asian flavors, especially with chicken.
Curry paste is one of the ingredients I really need to buy! I made something like this recently, but the vegetable was butternut squash. Broccolini would also be good!

Wonderful. Thank goodness for those curry pastes, because there’s no way I can get all of the free ingredients to make them at home!
