The New "Curry in a Hurry"

Ever since going to Thailand, my husband and I have been obsessed with Thai cuisine. I especially LOVE curry and all the health benefits of it. Did you know that curry can help prevent Alzheimer's disease? Yup...I eat plenty of it because it is a disease that runs in my family. I used to make a dish that my husband and I loved called "Curry in a Hurry." But after discovering this new recipe from www.skinnytaste.com, this our new "Curry in a Hurry."



Here is the recipe courtesy of www.skinnytaste.com...I altered it a little bit
(original recipe is "Thai Coconut Curry Shrimp")

1 tsp olive oil
4 scallions, whites and greens separated, chopped     
2 tbsp of red curry paste (used THAI brand)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 chicken breasts sliced in thin pieces 
4 oz of low fat coconut milk
2 tsp of fish sauce (used THAI brand)
1/4 chopped fresh cilantro

In a large skillet, heat oil. Add Chicken and cook 5 min. Add scallion whites and red curry paste, cook 2-3 mins. Add Garlic and cook 2 mins. Add coconut milk and fish sauce. Cook until chicken is cooked through. Remove from heat, mix in scallion greens and cilantro. Serve with rice. 

It obviously was a HUGE hit....Hubby's belly is very happy :-)
