Thai Green Curry

A light, healthy, incredibly tasty and easy Thai meal! It was so good I kept getting more servings. I loved the sauce-- light, sweet, coconutty-- and the way the taste of the lime leaves came out. It was so simple, but so good.


Green Curry with Chicken and Veggies over Rice
Serves 4

Ingredients:
1.5 pound chicken slice (we like a lot of chicken)
6 kaffir lime leaves
Vegetables of choice: bell pepper, spinach, onion, broccoli, eggplant, etc
We used orange peppers, spinach, onion, and broccolini on the side
Sauce:
6 T Green curry paste
14 0z. coconut milk
¼ cup fish sauce
2.5 T sugar

Combine chicken with sauce ingredients and bring to slow boil. Continue to simmer the chicken in the sauce until it has cooked (an interested method that makes the chicken surprisingly moist and tender) for about 8 min. 
Then add prepared vegetables and lime leaves, and finally garnish with basil before serving.  

Kale Salad
A delicious and healthy side for a meal. We like our kale. Can make many different varieties of kale salad.

How to make:
1 head of lachinato kale (AKA dinosaur kale)
Wash and thinly slice into thin ribbons, dry with salad spinner
Add 1 T olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, a drizzle of honey, and salt and pepper, then massage it in a bowl
Add toasted/ chopped nuts of choice, such as walnuts, almonds
We added spiced nuts, apples, and hemp seeds!
