Coconut Lime Chicken Curry

I came up with this recipe, trying to copy my favorite from a local Indian restaurant. Adding the green chile salsa is what finally did the trick! Although they don't serve it this way at the restaurant, I stir-fried some vegetables and mixed them in before serving. Served with Cilantro Lime Rice recipe #157086.

- 3 teaspoons green curry paste
- 1⁄2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (to taste)

- Add chicken back to pan and simmer about another 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thicker and chicken is fully cooked and tender.
