Thai Panang Red Curry

This curry is a little sweeter and has more of a lime flavor then other curries. My 1 1/2 year old ate two servings. This recipe is adapted from another blog to fit our tastes.

2 chicken breasts, cut into bite size pieces

1/2 small sweet onion, peeled and diced

2 cloves garlic, diced 

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 carrot, cut like match sticks 

1 Tbsp coconut oil

1 can Panang red curry paste

1 Tbsp peanut butter

1 can coconut milk 

1.5 Tbsp fish sauce

Directions

1. Heat coconut oil over medium high heat. Caramelize the onion over medium high heat. Add garlic. Stir for an additional 5 minutes. Add curry paste and peanut butter. Stir until fragrant. Add chicken breast and sear in seasonings. Add coconut milk and fish sauce. Add red bell pepper and carrots. Simmer until chicken breast is fully cooked and vegetables are tender. Enjoy!
