Ingredients:
✅ 1 jar Yai’s Thai Prik Khing Curry✅ 1-2 tbsp avocado oil, divided as needed
✅ 1 pound chicken thighs - bone in or boneless, cut into bite sized pieces
✅ 2 cups of green beans, ends snapped off and cut into 1 inch pieces
✅ 1 red bell pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
✅ ½ sweet onion, cut into ½ inch strips
✅ 1 cup purple cabbage, cut into 1 inch pieces
✅ Kosher salt and pepper to taste
✅ ½ lime cut into wedges (optional)
✅ 1-2 tbsp fresh herbs such as basil, cilantro, mint, torn or chopped (optional)
✅ 1-2 tbsp crushed cashews for crunch (optional)
Instructions:
✔️ Cut the protein and vegetables you have on hand in similarly sized pieces. If you’re cooking the protein from raw, start cooking the protein in your preferred method.* For this recipe I used the air fryer, and simply tossed the raw skin-on chicken thighs in 2 tsp avocado oil, salt and pepper at 380 degrees for 18 minutes, shaking mid way through.
✔️ Preheat your skillet to medium. Add 1-2 tsp of avocado oil, and add the onion. Saute until translucent, push to the side and add in the green beans. Once they’ve gotten some color and softened a bit, push to the side and add the bell pepper and cabbage. Saute all the vegetables together for 3-4 minutes, adding oil as needed. Season with kosher salt and pepper to taste.
✔️ Reduce the skillet heat to low, add in the entire jar of Yai's Thai Prik Khing Curry. Add a tbsp of water to the mostly empty jar and shake well to get all the flavor into the skillet. Add the completely cooked and crispy air fried chicken to the skillet with the curry and the vegetables.
✔️ Serve the curry as is, or take it a little further with the additional of fresh herbs, nuts, seeds, hot sauce, fresh lime juice. ❤️✌️
