Chicken Green Curry With Basil

Here's a recipe I found on a container of...the curry paste, I believe. I played with it a bit - this works much better if you add the snow peas just before serving. Snow peas are fragile, and lose their crispness quickly with cooking.

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 2-3

Ingredients

• 14  ounces coconut milk
• 1 -2  tablespoon green curry paste
• 1⁄2 cup  chicken stock
• 3  tablespoons fish sauce
• 2  tablespoons brown sugar
• 1⁄4 cup fresh basil, chopped
• 1⁄3 cup bamboo shoot
• 12  ounces chicken, diced
• 1⁄2 cup snow peas

Directions

1. Bring 4 ounces of coconut milk to a boil with the curry paste, sugar, stock and fish sauce.
2. Simmer for 15 minutes.
3. Add the remaining cocnut milk, basil, bamboo, and chicken and simmer another 10 minutes.
4. Just before serving, stir in the snow peas.
5. Serve over rice.
6. This recipe also works well with fish or shrimp.
