Thai Red Curry Chicken recipe with step by step photos. Fiery, spicy, hot, delicious with a subtle sweet taste coming from coconut milk. After making Veg Thai Red Curry paste it was quite natural for me to cook Thai Red Curry 🙂  To make it spicy or not is up to you if you use less of red paste the curry won’t be that spicy.

Thai curries are my favorite so make them quite often. Have already posted  egg thai curry, red thai prawns curry, tofu thai curry and veg thai paste. I had made Thai Red Curry Chicken especially for my guests who enjoyed a lot and even took some curry home along. Not only that evening guests ate this and relished it I was quite happy and satisfied with my cooking.

You could use ready-made red thai paste however prefer home-made thai paste. Usually make a lot and store them in the freezer. Mainly thai chilies are used for thai paste they are very spicy so use the paste moderately. The sweetness coming from the coconut milk balance the spice and flavors in the curry. Even for coconut milk you could use store bought or home-made.

3.If you don't want to make thai paste home you could buy them from stores. However I prefer homemade thai curry paste.
4.Same manner I make coconut milk home. The coconut milk used in this recipe is only thick milk. So take care of that part.
5.Cook the Thai Red Curry Chicken on low heat or medium heat.
6.If you don't like spice then add only 2 tbsp red paste or lesser than that.
7.I have used normal steamed rice but mostly thai cury is eaten with Jasmine Rice.
