Easy chicken breast recipe: Unbelievable taste when cooked in coconut milk

If all types of food disappeared but one, please let it be Thai food that remains. Thai cooking just seems to put so many wonderful ingredients in a single dish for the most delicious results. This recipe combines chicken breasts with coconut milk, Thai green curry paste, cilantro, and crushed peanuts and puts them all over jasmine rice. This is an I-must-try-this dish and its so easy to do.

Those of us with a sweet tooth can satisfy it with the combination of coconut milk and a little sugar added to the main course. Many Thai recipes include a sweetened and satisfying sauce. No need for dessert!

For those who like a spicy kick, Thai cuisine satisfies that as well. This recipe include Thai green curry. Adding more or less allows you to control the spiciness of the dish. The green curry is not an in your face type of heat, but rather a subtle spice that leaves a wonderfully warm feeling and a delicious taste. The coconut milk mixes well with it for a very unique flavor.

Its no longer necessary to go to a specialty store for Thai ingredients. Larger grocery stores now have an international aisle that offers an array of wonderful ingredients. Coconut milk and Thai green curry paste, as well as jasamine rice, are usually easy to find. (If you live in Grand Rapids, you can easily find these ingredients at Meijer.)
